DC CORRESPONDENT HYDERABAD, OCT. 9
Telangana’s Bathukam- ma festival was celebrat- ed in Toronto in a grand affair as hundreds of Tel- ugu families came togeth- er. Organised by the Telangana Development Forum (TDF) and the cul- tural group Tangedu, the event was held at a local school in Brampton.
The TDF said Bonalu and other festivals, incl- uding Bathukamma, are organised every year with the intention of continu- ing their cultural tradi- tions and conveying the importance of festivals to
the children born in Canada even though they are thousands of miles away from home. Women and children, many dre- ssed in traditional attire, created floral arrange- ments for the Bathu- kamma ritual using flow- ers available locally in Canada.
TDF Foundation Comm- ittee chairman Surender Peddi said they have been organising Telangana fes- tivals and Bathukamma festivals every year for the past twenty years with the intention of con- tinuing their roots and existence even after set- tling in Canada.
