Locked out: Two elderly members of the ashram standing outside the Vivekananda Ashram in Brickfields. The gates have been closed for weeks and their attempts to get in have proved futile.
THE Save Vivekananda Ashramam Action Committee (SVAB) wants the Vivekananda Ashram trustees to open the gates to the historical landmark in Brickfields.
This follows Tourism and Culture Minister Datuk Seri Nazri Aziz’s announcement in Parliament on Monday that a notice had been served to Kuala Lumpur City Hall (DBKL) and the trustees to gazette the 110-year-old ashram on Jalan Tun Sambanthan as a heritage building.
