A delegation from India has also been invited for the event, Vyapoory said at the inauguration of a three-day international seminar organised as part of the international Gita festival here.
The international Gita festival, which began here on December 7, was formally inaugurated on Thursday. Mauritius is the partner country and Gujarat is the partner state in the week-long festival here.
