“Garba is an age-old dance form that brings the community together with its rhythmic harmony. Its inscription on the Intangible Heritage List is an accolade for the beauty and resilience of our culture. This proud moment, when our very own Garba shines on the global stage, also reminds us of our responsibility to promote and preserve more religiously,” Shah wrote on ’X’.
