The PNCR yesterday called for the May 5th arrival observances to be designated as Indian Arrival Day.
The PNCR’s announcement in a message yesterday is seen as a major development and one that will put further pressure on the PPP/C government.
Indian rights activists here and a variety of groups have called over the years for May 5th, the day in 1838 when the first Indian indentured labourers arrived here, to be designated as Indian Arrival Day.
