Adding colour to Diwali, the Indian festival of lights, The Cobra Group took the initiative of being the Gold Sponsor at the inaugural Australia India Business Council (AIBC) Diwali celebration. The celebrations, hosted by Vice President of The Cobra Group, was attended by prominent people including the Indian High Commissioner in Australia Sujatha Singh, Australian criketer and wicket-keeper Brad Haddin, Federal Ministers and prominent Australian and Indian business representatives.
It was in fact an attempt at strengthening bilateral ties between the two countries. The Cobra Group also held a charity auction to raise funds for the ACT Eden Monaro Cancer Support Group. As part of the celebrations, there was a spectacular display of fireworks and a very vibrant performance by dancers from Bollywood. The Cobra Group took this initiative since it has always been an active supporter of the Australia India Business Council and has also favoured strengthening of ties between different countries across the globe.
