Spread of Hinduism in Seychelles
Hinduism in Seychelles is the second-largest religion after Christianity, with more than 5.4% of the population.[1][2] The Hindu following in Seychelles has seen an increase in the community with the organization of the Seychelles Hindu Kovil Sangam and the consecration of the Navasakti Vinayagar Temple. The increase in size and popularity of Hinduism caused the Government to declare Taippoosam Kavadi Festival a holiday.
