What happened
Watford Borough Council has put up land for sale, which is the site currently occupied by the Watford Velmurugan Temple. The temple, which has operated for 16 years, now faces the threat of closure. The temple requires an urgent deposit of £900,000 by November to secure a permanent home and complete its purchase.
Why it matters
The sale of the land by Watford Borough Council puts pressure on the temple's ability to maintain its operations. The temple is currently raising funds, having secured £50,000 in the first four days of its campaign, but still needs £850,000 to meet the deposit requirement.
