KLC is delighted to present

Tuesday 28th February 2012
In the Kinloss Suite, Finchley Synagogue
From 7:30 – 10:30pm
Further to the enormous success of our themed dinners on China (2010) and
Morocco (2011), KLC is thrilled to present another spectacular, special event.
A fascinating evening rich in the Jewish traditions, culture, cuisine and
history of India.
With a three course delicious Indian dinner catered by Royale Cuisine*
We will be delighted to welcome our distinguished Guest of Honour
Acting High Commissioner of India to the United Kingdom
H. E. Ambassador Rajesh Prasad

The ambassador will speak about the rich historical
and cultural ties between India and the Jews.
Prior to his current position, Amb. Prasad has held
senior diplomatic posts in Algiers, Accra, Geneva,
Jakarta, London and Riyadh.
In addition, during the dinner, popular KLC historian
Dr. Charles Landau
will speak on:
Indian Jews - A Breath of Fresh Air |
| Probably the most ancient Jewish community in the world and possibly part
of the ‘Ten Lost tribes’. Divided into three distinct entities, these ancient exotic
groups never experienced anti-Semitism and absorbed many of the local customs
and manners without assimilating. The secret of Indian tolerance is the Hindu
attitude to diversity of religious belief. Today the community is small but its
heritage is colourful, different and exciting. |
