WITH some two million people expected to throng the Sri Subramaniar Swamy Temple in Batu Caves in Gombak, Selangor, over the next few days in conjunction with Thaipusam, the local authorities are ramping up preparations to cater to the crowd.

With the easing of Covid-19 rules, a bigger crowd is expected at the temple grounds just as traders, too, will be making a return to the festival.
