Teej celebrations

Evan MULHOLLAND (Northern Metropolitan) (09:57): Happy Teej. It was wonderful to attend the Teej festival celebration organised by the Australian Nepalese Multicultural Centre with my colleague Trung Luu; Usman Ghani, the Liberal candidate for Calwell; Jason McClintock, the Liberal candidate for McEwen; and even Dr Ratnam. This vibrant festival celebrates women in Nepal and neighbouring countries. Congratulations to president Gandhi Bhattarai, secretary Tilak Pokharel and all the volunteers, especially the women.
