Present were representatives from Bahrain Arts and Cultural Authority and Foreign Affairs Ministry, as well as Indian community organisations, Indian PSUs in Bahrain, Business Community Media fraternity and prominent Bahraini and Indian dignitaries.

The Embassy of India, in association with MoFA, Bahrain, held a logo design contest in June, which was open for Indian and Bahraini nationals.

It attracted more than 200 entries. The logo designed by Ajo Antony, an Indian national resident in Bahrain, was selected after an elaborate process.

Antony was felicitated by Ambassador Srivastava on the occasion. The Embassy, in partnership with concerned agencies of the Bahrain government and Indian community organisations, will be hosting a series of events in 2021-22 to mark the milestone Golden Jubilee celebrations.
