The event, which will take place at the Seremban City Council (MBS) Hall from 11am to 4pm, will see a boost in the state government's allocation, with RM70,000 set aside this year compared to RM30,000 in the previous year. The festivities will showcase the state's diverse communities and cultures, offering visitors a taste of traditional Indian cuisine. Ismail Lasim expressed his hope that the celebration would foster goodwill among the communities and strengthen the unity already present in the state. He also mentioned that allocations would be allocated to rural areas, including estates, to provide assistance to needy members of the Indian community. The potential development of Jalan Dato Lee Fong Yee into Seremban's Little India will be discussed further with the Seremban City Council mayor before any final decision is made.",
