Sad news for the community ahead of the festive season.

"Mr Sharma said this was the sixth time in as little as two years that the temple had been targeted by thieves and it was getting hard to know what more could be done to ramp up security measures", Larkhan Sharma,

This is not the first time the buildings have been targeted by thieves and some community members say they are "horrified".

Mental health is one of the major priorities for ACT Desi and since the time I have been been running this show, and not association, I always try to share any good source of information with my members of the community.

This week too, I am sharing contents of an article that I read about fostering positive self-worth and tried to present the learnings in easy to digest form, attaching my own personal journey.

So, tune in today at 8:30 pm by visiting www.2xxfm.org.au or tuning into DAB+ or 98.3 FM on radio.

Immerse in the culture and history with ACT Desi - A Glimpse of India!

Check out the show reel of the Garba workshop that was organised by ACT Desi in collaboration with School of Culture, History & Language at the The Australian National University

Rucha - choreographer, tutor and an accomplished dancer helped organised the workshop. It was made to look so easy and enjoyable, perhaps why a testament of her Master's degree in dance and over a decade long experience in teaching and practicing the art form.

A fun and inclusive workshop, it was enjoyed by one and all!
