Najib to attend mammoth Selangor MIC gathering in Meru

PETALING JAYA: Selangor MIC will hold a mammoth gathering in Meru, Klang tomorrow which will be attended by Prime Minister Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak.

MIC secretary-general Datuk S. Murugesan said the gathering would be held at SMK Meru's field at 2pm.

“The gathering is held to motivate the state's MIC and Barisan Nasional members before they prepare to face the elections,” said Murugesan yesterday.

He added that the highlight of the evening would be speeches by Najib and party president Datuk G. Palanivel.

The event starts at 2pm and will go on until 7pm with the Prime Minister attending the gathering at 5.30pm.

“We are expecting him to make an announcement pertaining to the Indian community,” said Murugesan.

He said Selangor MIC decided to organise the gathering as there was a good chance for Barisan to wrest the state back from Pakatan Rakyat.

“People have returned to the Barisan fold because they are fed up with the Pakatan state government,” said Murugesan.

He said similar gatherings would be held in Perak and Kedah if there was sufficient time to do so before the elections.
