Splitting from the central organization over issues of caste and representation, two other groups emerged from within the Arya Samj movement in Mauritius. The first group, called the Mauritius Arya Ravi Ved Pracharini Sabha, known locally as the Ravi Veds, was founded in 1934 and aimed to promote the interests and well-being of its members, who usually joined on a caste related basis. Their administrative headquarters are pictured here.
