MIC president Datuk Seri S. Samy Vellu said the solution was reached after Prime Minister Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi directed him and Selangor Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohd Khir Toyo to sit down and resolve the matter. 

"Earth work for the temple relocation has begun," Samy Vellu told newsmen at the Putra World Trade Centre on Wednesday after the presidential address at the Umno general assembly. 

Samy Vellu, who is Works Minister, stressed that the MIC had never looked at the temple demolition issue as a religious problem but more as an administrative weakness. 

"Only I as the president had voiced my view on the matter to the Prime Minister and Mentri Besar," he said. 

"I have spoken to the Prime Minister and I have told him that we will all celebrate Deepavali," he said, adding that he would also attend the national-level Deepavali celebrations in Brickfields on Nov 11.
