About the episode

Tasmanians will return to the polls on 19 July, just 15 months after the last state election, following a no-confidence motion against Premier Jeremy Rockliff. SBS Hindi spoke with Devi Sharma, a board member of the Multicultural Council of Tasmania (MCOT), to understand some key concerns of the Indian diaspora. According to the Australian Bureau of Statistics, more than 6,000 people of Indian origin reside across the state.
