KLANG: Some 2,000 supporters of former MIC deputy president Datuk S. Subramaniam gathered here last night, urging him to make his political stand known.
Party central working committee member S.P. Manivasagam said in his speech that Subramaniam was still needed to bring change to the MIC.
Among those at the event were local MIC leaders, party central working committee members, former Hindraf co-ordinator K. Vasanthakumar and philanthropist OMS Thiagarajan.
Survey forms on the current status of the MIC among the Indian community were also distributed.
Among the questions asked were, if the MIC was still relevant and if Indians had voted for the opposition in the last general election because they were disillusioned with the party.
In his speech, Manivasagam said Subramaniam was inducted into the party in the 1970s by the then party president V. Manikavasagam to bring change to the MIC with the inclusion of young professionals.
Subramaniam was not at the event.
