2010 Oct. 17 Anil Suvedi, Om Prakash Adhakari

Medical students in China Three Gorges University, Yichang Hubei China along with Chinese and foreign students celebrated the greatest Hindu festival Dashain by receiving tika and blessings from elders and teachers. The program organized by CTGU Foreign Students’ Volunteer Group involved all the students from Nepal, India, Maldives and China. The program became more interesting when the Chinese students and non-Hindu students from other countries joined and received the tika and blessings from the Nepalese teachers teaching in China Three Gorges University.

Although we are in foreign land, we have the responsibility of preserving our culture and tradition; we enjoy sharing our culture, said the president of the volunteer group. The teachers appreciated the work and Chinese friends were very happy by knowing the culture and social practice of foreigners.
