Kuala Lumpur, Nov. 6 (ANI): In a bid to promote Indian culture, the Indian High Commission in Malaysia has opened a cultural centre in Kuala Lumpur.

The Star Online quoted Indian High Commissioner to Malaysia Ashok K. Kantha, as saying that the cultural centre, located at Capital Square in Jalan Dang Wangi, would house a multi-purpose hall, library, tourism kiosk and an exhibition gallery.

Qualified teachers from India will offer classes in Kathak dance, yoga and Hindi, he added.
