Opposition MP wants to cite Unity Minister to Rights and Privileges Committee over Mitra funds issue

KUALA LUMPUR: An Opposition lawmaker wants to cite National Unity Minister Datuk Halimah Mohamed Sadique to the Parliament’s Rights and Privileges Committee for allegedly misleading the Dewan Rakyat relating to the issue of the Malaysian Indian Transformation Unit (Mitra) funds.

M. Kula Segaran (PH-Ipoh Barat) said Halimah had told the Dewan Rakyat on Nov 17 that she would brief MPs over the disbursements of the funds, meant for the poor in the Indian community.
