CHETTIARS, who established the 150-year-old Sri Nagara Thandayuthapani Hindu Temple in Jalan Bukit Jawa, are against Klang Municipal Council’s (MPK) unilateral decision to rename Chetty Padang to Jejak Warisan Klang @ Chetty Padang.

Sri Nagara Thandayuthapani Hindu Temple incoming president Dr A. Ramanathan, 75, said MPK must retain the original name as it gives people of all races and cultural backgrounds a sense of identity.
