Hindu devotees can fulfil vows at Batu Caves Temple until Jan 30


KUALA LUMPUR: The Sri Subramaniar Swamy Temple in Batu Caves has 'opened the door' for Hindus who did not have the opportunity to fulfil their vows to do so even though the Thaipusam celebration ended last Tuesday (Jan 18).

Speaking to Bernama, its Trustee, Datuk N. Sivakumar, said the temple was making all preparations for Hindu devotees to pay their vows, including bringing 'paal koodam' (milk pot offering) and 'kavadi' and shaving their hair as penance for answered prayers until Jan 30.
