KUALA LUMPUR: MIC deputy president Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam has declined comment on whether the party is taking any decision to hold fresh elections.
He merely said: “We will assist MIC from being de-registered by the Registrar of Societies,” when asked by reporters at a party event at MIC headquarters.
Dr Subramaniam said his view was that more than 600,000 MIC members would not allow one person to act alone as it was the joint responsibility of all party members to preserve the MIC.
On December 5, the Registrar had directed the MIC to hold new elections for three vice-presidents and 23 MIC Central Working Committee posts following complaints of abuse of power and acts of misconduct which violated the party’s constitution and the Societies Act.
The party was also ordered to hold new elections in Bayan Baru, Bukit Gelugor, Subang, Bandar Baru Kulim, Taiping, Tambun, Sepang and Jasin divisions within 60 days; new contests within 30 days for Batu Kawan deputy chairman, Kota Raja division chairman, Tanjung Malim division chairman and Taman Koperasi Polis branch chairman; and fresh elections for Merlimau Utara and Rumah Pangsa Pekeliling Selatan branches in 30 days.
The party was also advised not to hold the annual general assembly before these matters were settled.
The event at party headquarters today was about 200 MIC volunteers heading to the East Coast states to assist flood victims. The volunteers would take along foodstuff, kitchen utensils, cash and assistance for school children, amounting to about RM400,000.
“They will also be carrying out welfare work, school cleaning and hold health and village clinics,” he added.
