For the first time, the centuries-old tradition of Ganga Aarti has come to the banks of the River Thames in London. Thousands gathered at the Old Royal Naval College in Greenwich as lamps, music, prayer and devotion brought the spirit of the Ganga to Britain. Organised by Chinmaya Mission UK and the Totally Thames festival, the ceremony was a celebration of faith, heritage and the enduring connection between India and Britain. Organisers described it as the largest Ganga Aarti ever staged in the UK. In this episode of Out Of Britain by Radhika Iyer, we explore what happens when a ritual deeply rooted in the Ganga finds a new home on the Thames, and what the moment means for the Indian diaspora in Britain. #GangaAarti #GangaAartiOnThames #RiverThames #London #Greenwich #ChinmayaMission #TotallyThames #HinduCulture #IndianCulture #IndianHeritage #IndianDiaspora #BritishIndians #IndianCommunity #IndiaUK #IndiaBritain #HinduTradition #Ganga #OutOfBritain #RadhikaIyer #NDTV #NDTVWorld About NDTV (English news channel): NDTV is India's Most-Trusted News Broadcaster with the latest updates in news, sports, entertainment and much more from within India and around the world.
