Still sore over cow head, Section 23 Indians to root for PAS in Bagan Pinang

SHAH ALAM, Sept 23 - Indian residents of Section 23 here and from other parts of the Selangor capital intend to ensure the cow head protest against the relocation of a Hindu temple here, is “prominently featured” in the upcoming Bagan Pinang by-election.

Plans are under way to get the residents, who are still smarting over how the protest was orchestrated by politicians, to campaign on the side of PAS.

Some 20 per cent of the voters in Bagan Pinang in Negeri Sembilan are Indians and could prove crucial in a close contest.

“We will remind the Indians in Bagan Pinang what happened to the community here,” said resident K Raja, a draughtsman.
