A fencing project aimed at improving safety at a temple in Nadi has been commissioned with support from the government.

Minister for Multi-Ethnic Affairs, Culture, Heritage, Arts and Public Enterprises Charan Jeath Singh commissioned the project at the Sri Sanatan Dharam Wailoaloa Laxmi Vishnu Temple.

The project was funded through the Multi-Ethnic Grant Program for the 2024–2025 financial year.

Government provided $9,672 to assist with the purchase of fencing materials, while labour for the construction was carried out voluntarily by the temple management and members of the community.
