In conjunction with the programme and the Hari Raya Aidiladha celebration, His Highness agreed to perform the sacrificial ritual of slaughtering a cow. Masjid Sultan Salahuddin Abdul Aziz Shah’s Chief Imam Muhammad Farhan Wijaya witnessed the ceremony.
Tengku Amir also distributed the sacrificial (qurban) meat to ‘asnaf’ (tithe recipients) representatives and district residents.
At the same ceremony, His Highness was briefed on the state development plan by three local authorities and several state agencies.
Gagasan Rumpun Selangor aims to celebrate diversity and foster unity statewide.
Previously, Menteri Besar Dato' Seri Amirudin Shari announced that the programme would be held in nine districts involving a RM4.5 million allocation.
So far, the programme has been held in Hulu Selangor, Hulu Langat, Sepang, and Petaling, before continuing to five other districts until the end of this year.
