Hundreds of bags of clothes were donated by the community and shipped to Bhuj, the capital of Kutch district, the epicentre of the earthquake.

The event was attended by Acharya Maharajshri Koshalendraprasadji Maharaj (spiritual head of the NarNarayan Dev Gadi), who installed the new idols in the temple.

Around 3,000 people took part in a 1.6-mile long procession full of music, colour and dance through Cardiff to mark 25 years of the faith in the city.

The procession, which was shown live on the internet, was the culmination of a week of events, held to celebrate the redevelopment of the temple.

A musical performance was put up by the temple for the event and there was a highlight of the Diwali celebrations for guests, ending with the Aarti.
