KUALA LUMPUR: Communication Minister Fahmi Fadzil says that Era FM will be investigated immediately after its employees were seen seemingly mocking the Hindu religion in a now-viral video.

The video, which was originally shared on the station’s social media platforms on Tuesday morning (March 4), showed a number of its DJs mimicking the sacred Hindu kavadi dance while chanting “Vel Vel” as they laughed.
