00:00MIC Deputy President M. Saravanan has withdrawn his challenge for a debate on Hinduism with

00:07independent preacher Zamri Vinod.

00:10During a press conference today, he said the decision was made after discussions with National

00:14Unity Minister Eran Agudagang and MIC President S. A. Vigneswaran.

00:20Saravanan said that his invitation for a debate was to defend Hinduism by correcting and educating

00:25Zamri regarding his views of Hinduism and that it would not have been a debate between

00:30religions.

00:31Yesterday, Eran expressed hope that the proposed debate between Saravanan and Zamri would be

00:50called off, saying debates focusing too much on religious differences could escalate tension

00:55and strain relationships among Malaysia's multi-religious communities.

00:59Nevertheless, Saravanan, the TAPA MP, urged the government to take action against Zamri

01:05to resolve the issue and advised the Indian community to lodge police reports against

01:09Zamri instead of taking the law into their own hands.

01:13Earlier today, DAP's R. S. N. Raiyar and URI MEI Chairman P. Ramasamy had doubled down

01:18on calls for police action against Zamri.
