SUNGAI BESAR: Politicians should not drag the royal institution including the Yang di-Pertuan Agong into political discussions, said Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.

He said this is because the position and stature of the Malay Rulers differ from their subjects, and the sovereignty of the Royal Institution should be respected by all parties.
