March 6, 2025

SHRIKAILASA has established bilateral relations with the Janjanbureh Area Council of the Republic of The Gambia, signed by the Vice Chairman and Councillor for Kudang Ward, the Hon. Haruna Barry.

SHRIKAILASA and Janjanbureh Area Council share similar goals of international cooperation, mutual prosperity, religious freedom and world peace, and endeavour to mutually collaborate towards areas including eradication of hunger, youth leadership, holistic health and education initiatives, environmental stewardship and sustainable living.

The town of Janjanbureh is located on Janjanbureh Island in the Gambia River, West Africa and also forms the Janjanbureh District, Administrative capital and Headquarters of the Central River Region, one of the eight Local Government Areas.

The former British colonial settlement was founded in 1823, when the King of Lower Niani, Kolli Camara, ceded the island to Britain. There are a few historic buildings in the town that tell of the settlement’s colonial past. It was then founded as Georgetown in 1832.

Janjanbureh has diverse wildlife with a variety of mammals and reptiles such as Green Vervet monkeys, turtles, Callithrix monkeys, Temminck’s Western Red Colobus. About 14 miles downstream at the Central River Circuit, around the three uninhabited Kai Hai Islands, Janjanbureh has one of the few remaining populations of hippopotamus in West Africa.
