According to the MIC, the Seafield Temple should not prevent the heads of government from visiting

KUALA LUMPUR: The chairman of MIC, SA Vigneswaran, today criticized the Seafield Sri Maha Mariamman temple parties, which reportedly prevented government officials from visiting the temple.

He said that it was unacceptable for them not to allow government ministers to go to the temple to hear the misfortunes of the temple committee, denying the role played by MIC in the decision.

"I heard yesterday that they did not allow government ministers to come in. What is it? Yesterday, I had already told the people of the temple that it was unacceptable.

"We do not do cheap politics. We are ready to sacrifice everything to maintain the peace and harmony of the public and the country. "

Speaking at a press conference in Parliament, the president of Dewan Negara commented on the tension around a Hindu temple in Seafield, as a result of the attack on the island. an unknown group on a group of faithful yesterday morning. Eighteen vehicles were burned.

Thousands of people gathered at the temple last night as the crowd became unruly again, resulting in the burning of several cars and the vandalism of the developer's office. A member of the fire and rescue service was injured and was hospitalized.

Vigneswaran urged Inspector General of Police Mohamad Fuzi Harun to pay close attention and investigate the perpetrators of the violence.

"I hope the IGP is watching the videos since yesterday. Who gave the speech before the situation got out of control and ordered the protesters to head to the One City office? "

Vigneswaran said the MIC fully supported the police in the search for the guilty and in the action against those who caused the unrest.

"These people behave like thugs. Do not try to be a hero by doing silly things and endangering the lives of innocent people.

"It's not the law of the jungle. People had entered the temple and the police had taken action. So enough.

Noting that many race-related issues are now faced, Vigneswaran urged all parties to slow things down a bit and act rationally to preserve the country's peace for 61 years.

When he was asked if he would go to the temple tonight, he said the best thing for everyone to do was not to go because the police and the Federal Reserve would be there to avoid unwanted incidents.
