About the Ahimsa-based Fest

Ahimsa Parmo Dharma Group had organised an event called 'The Ahimsa fest' on 20 November 2016. The aim of the first edition of the festival was to bring people closer to the concept of 'Ahimsa'. The event comprised a seminar that featured imminent speakers from around the world. The event included 10 workshops and live music performance. The core vision was to create awareness about making healthier and cruelty-free life choices, while enjoying the experience at the same time.
