GEORGE TOWN: A RM3mil golden chariot will hit the streets here on the eve of Thaipusam in February, challenging the 120-year monopoly of the silver chariot operated by the Nattukottai Chettiars.
With the new chariot commissioned by the Penang Hindu Endowment Board from Karaikudi in Tamil Nadu, there will now be two chariots making the trip from Little India to the temples in Jalan Kebun Bunga. Their routes will not overlap.
