Diwali Message 2014 – AFC Press Release

On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, the Alliance For Change extends greetings to all  our Hindu brothers and sisters. This is a time of great religious significance in the Hindu calendar commemorating the return of Lord Rama after he had spent 14 years in exile. 

On the auspicious occasion of Diwali, the Alliance For Change extends greetings to all  our Hindu brothers and sisters. This is a time of great religious significance in the Hindu calendar commemorating the return of Lord Rama after he had spent 14 years in exile. 

The message of Diwali gives us hope and teaches us that evil and darkness will not triumph in the face of goodness and light. It is a time for forgiveness and looking beyond differences. It is not a time for debasing and making disparaging remarks about others. 

On this occasion, the Alliance For Change urges all Guyanese; regardless of their religious beliefs, to pray for our nation and for each other, that each of us may be a light of hope and kindness in the life of someone else. This Diwali as we share in the sweat-meats and other treats, let us also share peace and kindness.

Meanwhile, the AFC acknowledges its oversight in calling for a sitting of the National Assembly on October 22. Given the usual preparations and religious observances on this evening, it would have been impractical for the House to meet.

A happy Diwali to all.
