Smoother processions for Thaipusam


Filepic of devotees presenting their offerings to Lord Muruga in the silver chariot which sets out from the Kovil Veedu (Temple House) in Penang Street at dawn.

THE Thaipusam festival on Jan 31 is set to proceed in a more orderly manner this year after issues were ironed out between Penang Hindu Endowment Board (PHEB) and the Nattukotai Chettiar Temple.

PHEB chairman Dr P. Ramasamy gave assurance that the ‘teething problems’ of adding the golden chariot last year have been addressed.
