Two of Essequibo’s leading dance troupes last weekend took the top spots at the Guyana Hindu Dharmic Sabha’s Rang Rasiya Folk Dance competition.

The event, hosted at the Dharmic Sanskritik Kendra, at Prashad Nagar last Saturday, was held to usher in Phagwah celebrations.

Outshining other dance troupes were the Sara-swattie Dance Academy and Kandhiya Dance Troupe, which copped first and second, respectively, in the competition. The Golden Om Dharmic Dance Troupe, from Berbice, placed third.
