Hinduism was first introduced by Sindhi settlers who migrated to Ghana after India was divided in 1947.[1][2] It was spread to Ghana actively by Ghana's Hindu Monastery headed by Swami Ghananand Saraswati[1] and by the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Hinduism is one of the fastest growing religions in Ghana.[1]
