Chandigarh: This year’s International Gita Mahotsav will be held in Sydney in Australia during April 28-30, the Haryana government said here.
“The Gita Mahotsav is a grand celebration of the timeless wisdom of the Bhagvad Gita. The event brings together people from all walks of life,” the government statement said on Sunday.
The annual international festival, which has over the years been held in Kurukshetra during November-December, is being held abroad over the past years.
The last few editions of the festival were held in Mauritius, England, and Canada.
