Place Mitra back under Prime Minister's Dept, says Ramanan

KUALA LUMPUR: The Malaysian Indian Transformation Unit (Mitra) should be placed back under the Prime Minister's Department, said former Mitra Special Task Force Committee Chairman Datuk R Ramanan.

The call, he said, was made after taking into account the views of various parties, especially the Indian community who believe that Mitra, as an asset and arm of the Indian community, is more ‘comfortable’ being within the purview of Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
