SEYCHELLE ARCHIPELAGO, May 23, 2003: Tamil writer, Vijaratnam Sivasupramaniam, tells the world about the Seychelles islands in his new book, “Decade of growth.” The Seychelles are located southwest of India and east of Kenya in the Indian Ocean. Hindus began organized religious gatherings in 1984 when they formed the Seychelles Hindu Kovil Sangham. The Sangham went on to build the first and only public Hindu temple in the archipelago. The Seychelles Arul Mihu Navasakthi Vinayaka Temple was completed in 1992.
