Form board on temple construction
RAWANG: The Selangor government has called on Hindu temples to set up a committee to coordinate guidelines for the construction of temples in the state.
Mentri Besar Datuk Seri Dr Mohamad Khir Toyo said the committee was crucial in ensuring that temples were constructed in accordance with state regulations.
“We don't want temples being built without approval. Suggestions from this will be discussed at the executive council level before approval (for building new temples) is given,” he said after attending a meeting with heads of Hindu temple committees here yesterday.
Dr Mohamad Khir added that he hoped the committee could be formed within six months. – Bernama
