Miss Taras Supermarket Vasenai Rabo is the Vodafone Tebara 2023 Carnival Queen.

An emotional Rabo acknowledged the great support from her parents, who have been with her from day 1.

Rabo also won the Best Personality Award, Best Talent Award, Best Traditional Attire Award, and Miss Charity Award.

While officiating at the crowning, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance Professor Biman Prasad acknowledged the Queen contestants for using their knowledge, wisdom, and courage to advocate on the subject of clean environment during the 8 day Carnival.

Professor Prasad acknowledged the Tebara Carnival Committee for a successful event.
