Rajasthan Foundation to celebrate Teej online

Jaipur, 1 August. Rajasthan Foundation will be hosting the Teej celebrations online which will be attended by around 100 participants from over 50 countries. It will be telecasted live on various social media platforms at 7.30 pm on August 6, 2020. 

There is a lot of enthusiasm among the NRRs who have migrated to foreign lands many years ago and still want to remain in touch with their culture and tradition. 

Shri Dhiraj Srivastava, Commissioner, Rajasthan Foundation said, “The objective of Rajasthan Foundation is to organise such events to promote and foster the traditional Rajasthani values; improve the understanding of the rich culture and traditions amongst the young generations and strengthen our engagement with NRR community,” 

The event will have artists singing Rajasthani Teej folk songs. They will also interact and engage with the participants. 

The Foundation had formed a Whatsapp group in March 2020, which has now grown into one big family of 170 members with representation from over 50 countries. 

“It is the time to make the women and daughters of our family happy," said Mr Srivastava organising Teej, which is dedicated to the ladies of the family. The common thread that binds all NRRs is sharing the culture, heritage and traditions of their native land.
