Edward B Beharry and Company Ltd cops top position in GHDS motorcade
Edward B Beharry and Company Ltd once again copped the top position on Saturday night as the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha (GHDS) hosted its grand Motorcade and Cultural Programme at the La Bonne Intention (LBI) Community Ground, Georgetown.
Edward B Beharry Company representatives presented with their prize for copping first place in the motorcade
The winning float displayed slogans to raise awareness about breast cancer in Guyana and, as such, copped the best commercial prize, as well as the overall best designed prize.
The event consisted of two categories and the winners were recognised and rewarded accordingly.
In the large category, the Success Hindu Temple came out as the top winner with the Golden Om Dharmic Youth Organisation coming in second position.
Dharmic Naujawaan was awarded third place while Soesdyke Vishnu Mandir copped fourth spot.
Finally in that category, LBI Hindu Mandir was awarded fifth place and Good Hope Mahaica Mandir followed in the sixth place spot.
In the small category, the Balesar family copped the top position with a float which displayed goddess Lakshmi and her husband, Vishnu, as they stand within the coils of the many-headed serpent.
The Ba Shri Mandir was awarded second space, while Camille’s Institute, another big winner every year, was awarded third space.
Coming in fourth was Philadelphia Hindu Temple followed by the Windsor Forest Radha Krishna Mandir.
The De Willem Hindu Temple, whose float displayed a large elephant sculpture positioned at its front and was a spectacle for onlookers, was awarded the sixth position.
This year, the Andrew Arts Trophy for best overall designed float in the entire competition was given to the Success Hindu Temple.
