SJK(T) RRI in Sungai Buloh will remain at its current location with a new school building, Malaysia Nanban reported.
The matter was announced by Selangor state exco member V. Papparaidu after a meeting with all the parties involved.
One group wanted the school to stay put while another party had lobbied for it to be moved to a better location.
During the meeting in Shah Alam, it was explained that the current location of the school is better served by an MRT line nearby, making it a preferred site for its pupils.
The current location and 5.94 acres of land has been gazetted by the state in 2023 while the local council had allocated another location for the school.
Papparaidu said the discussion over which location is better had dragged on for some time, which has caused delays in constructing the new school building.
With the final decision reached at the meeting, Papparaidu said he would meet the Education Minister to discuss and set up a new Tamil school on the land allocated by the Shah Alam City Council.
The parent-teachers association members and former school board members also attended the meeting.
