MalaysiaMalaysiaMalaysia – MIC president Tan Sri SA Vigneswaran stated the organization is prepared to run Indian Muslim candidates in the next 15th General Election (GE15).

He said that the subject had just been considered by the party’s central working committee.

“There isn’t anything wrong with us (MIC).” If there is demand in certain areas (areas) that a Muslim candidate is required for particular reasons, we are prepared since we have Indian Muslim candidates who are willing to run.

“As long as they’re MIC (traditional) seats, we’ll compete,” he said following the breaking of the fast event. The event was also attended by MIC vice president Datuk Seri M Saravanan.

Vigneswaran also said that MIC will continue to safeguard and help the Indian Muslim population in the nation, in addition to ensuring the rights of Indians.

The prime minister’s special envoy to India and South Asia emphasized that the 76-year-old party had never ignored India’s Muslim population, as certain political groups alleged.
