On Sunday 1 October, along with the member for Liverpool, Federal member Anne Stanley and Liverpool Councillor Dr Betty Green, I attended the twenty-eighth annual Ganeshotsava Festival at the Whitlam Centre. The festival has evolved from a humble gathering in a family's garage to one of the biggest festivals of its kind in Sydney, with thousands attending every year over three days to celebrate Subcontinental culture. The event had rich Hindu diversity on display, with a variety of performance, dance, dress, food, culture and prayer spotlighted in this festival dedicated to the Hindu God Ganesh. I thank Friends of India Australia and congratulate the group on organising this event every year for community members to enjoy. Groups like this highlight the best of Australian multiculturalism. I look forward to continuing to attend and seeing the festival grow in the years to come.
