Belfast Mela founder Nisha Tandon reflects on 45 years since making a new life in NI

It's almost 45 years since Indian-native Nisha Tandon first set foot in Northern Ireland on a very dreary and wet summer day.

Today, she's busily preparing for the return of Northern Ireland’s largest cultural diversity festival, the Belfast Mela, which is making a welcome return later this month.

The 64-year-old, who lives in south Belfast, is also the founder of ArtsEkta, which promotes intercultural exchange through arts, culture and heritage.
