According to the 2001 census there were 1,600 Hindus in Seychelles. Most of them were ethnic east Indian. In 1901 there were 332 Hindu families out of a population of 19,237 and roughly 3,500 Tamil speaking people. The organization of the Seychelles Hindu Kovil Sangam in 1984 and the consecration of the Navasakti Vinayagar Temple in May 1992 were landmarks for the resurgence of Indian cultural activities apart from the religious awakening [1]
