MALACCA: The MIC and the People's Progressive Party are at it again.
"The MIC has no time to respond to statements regarding the progress of the Indian community in the country as there are other better things to do," he said in response to Murugiah's statement that blamed the MIC for the poor economic showing of Indians.
Dr Subramaniam said Murugiah's statement was baseless as MIC leaders had actively promoted the interests of the community over the past 60 years.
"It would be better if he concentrated on doing something positive for the community rather than passing negative comments on what others are doing and by so doing only creating unnecessary friction among leaders.
"We cannot waste time commenting on everything he says. There are many other better things for the leaders of the Indian community to do," he said.
Dr Subramaniam was speaking to reporters after walking some 12km carrying a "Paal Koodum" (a pot of milk) from the oldest Hindu temple in the country, Sri Poyyatha Vinayagar Moorthi Temple in Jonker Street, to the Sannasi Malai Andavar Temple, in Cheng.
The Human Resources Minister is the first minister to ever join devotees in the procession held to mark the "Masi Magam" festival.
