Third World Solidarity organised an evening to honour the life and work of the Indian intellectual giant Rabindranath Tagore, marking the 84th anniversary of his passing.
Speakers included Keith Bennett; Mihir Bose, the BBC London broadcaster; Cllr Pritam Grewal, former Mayor of Hounslow; Ziauddin Yousafzai, who joined by video link; and Rita Payne, President Emeritus of the Commonwealth Journalists Association.
They reflected on Tagore's enduring legacy, with a particular focus on his internationalism, which earned him the Nobel Prize for Literature.
The evening was introduced by Cllr Shahid Nadeem Sandhu, Secretary General of Third World Solidarity, and chaired by our Chairman, Hon. Alderman Mushtaq Lasharie CBE.
