THE Indian Arrival Committee (IAC) wishes to extend heartfelt congratulations to the young, vibrant, intelligent and talented Ms. Alana Seebarran who was crowned Miss India Worldwide 2012 in the recent pageant held in neighbouring Suriname. In the pageant, in which 35 girls of Indian origin took part, Alana stood out for her articulate and intelligent presentation and represented her country with pride and dignity. Beauty and brains, as we say, were put to use in the best way, not forgetting her talent piece with which she won the hearts of the judges and audience. The IAC is very proud of this achievement and wishes Ms. Seebarran success in all her future endeavours.
