SHAH ALAM: A deeply irked Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah gave Subang MP Sivarasa Rasiah a tongue lashing for not following the Ruler's directive for politicians not to deliver speeches or talks in mosques.  

In his address at the breaking of fast and the launch of the Masjid An Nur Temasya Glenmarie, here, on Friday, the Selangor Sultan said he had stated on many occasions that mosques must not be used for such purposes but it appeared that his directive went unheeded.
