Malaysia’s Putrajaya to get first Hindu temple

Putrajaya, the seat of Malaysia government, will have its first Hindu temple in the near future.

Reports suggest that the required approval has been granted and after
groundbreaking ceremonies in March, construction of the about 17,000 square feet two-storey structure of this about RM 12 million Sri Lalithambikai Alayam Temple on a one-acre plot will start in September.

Hoped to be completed in 2015, this unique one-of-a-kind first Lalithambikai temple in the country, inspired by the elements of South and North India temples, will serve about 10,000 area Hindus. Project leaders plan to include 10-20 special pillars in the complex which will ring when tapped, reports add.
