A wonderful evening of Faith and Inter-Faith Stalwarts was hosted at the Mansion House Thursday 13th February 2014 with all the pomp and fanfare in the heart of the City of London.
At the Reception Anil Bhanot complimented the Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby for his positioning of arguments in a progressive way yet in keeping with the unity of the Church on the more difficult issues.
The Lord Mayor Alderman Fiona Woolf CBE gave a inspirational speech on the need to be more inclusive on diversity in the City, and commenting on her ceremonial frock she said it was time to see some Bishops in frocks too.
Some pictures below of some of the dear colleagues Anil Bhanot and the Hindu Council UK has the pleasure of continuing to work with on inter faith issues across the UK.
