A memorable first Diwali at the Oregon State Capitol in Salem, as the Indian-American community and friends of India came together to celebrate Diwali in the heart of Oregon!

Thank Hon’ble Governor Tina Kotek for joining the ceremonial lighting of the Diya and for her warm appreciation of the Indian-American community’s contributions to Oregon.

In a heartfelt gesture, Governor Kotek described Diwali as “a truly Oregon event”, highlighting how its spirit of bringing people together reflects the values of the state.
