The Arunagirinathar event is a celebration aimed at fostering unity and discipline among Indian youths, and is currently being held in eight cities across Malaysia. However, calls are growing for the event to expand nationwide to ensure more young people benefit from its spiritual and cultural guidance.

Shanmugam Mookan, Special Officer to the Prime Minister, emphasized its importance of broadening the reach of the event. Speaking at the event as the chief guest, Shanmugam highlighted how celebrations like the Arunagirinathar plays a crucial role in shaping the values and ambitions of Indian Youth. He noted that expanding events like this could lead to a more united and disciplined community.

Shanmugam also shared that the Malaysian government has been actively supporting initiatives aimed at uplifting the Indian community. Last year, the Prime Minister’s Department allocated RM10 million for Indian community development. A portion of this, RM230,000, was granted to the Malaysian Hindu Sangam for the Thirumurai recitation ceremony. Additionally, financial aid was extended to Indian social movements, Tamil schools, and Indian students in need of educational assistance.
