The father of the bride, Selvam Chanemougame, president of the Tamij Sangam Reunion association: “I have campaigned for 33 years to promote Indo-Reunion culture. Many achievements: Dipavali, inscriptions on Lazarets in Grande Chaloupe, Tamil New Year, statues of Gandhi all over the island. I want a wedding for my girl in the country of our ancestors, a way to pay homage to them and to build a bridged emotional connection between this Indian Ocean nation and our island.”
Local and Mauritian politicians came especially for the wedding.
