In light of the new government funding available at the time, the Mauritius Tamil Temples Federation (MTTF) was established in 1960 to oversee the administration of the Mauritian kovils and to attempt to bring together the leadership of the Tamil community. The MTTF continues to provide the leadership for the Tamil Hindu community of Mauritius and the 106 kovils and groups belonging to the organization. The MTTF continues to build new kovils and adhere to very strict traditional Tamil architecture, which includes an elaborate gateway into the temple compound as pictured here at the Arulmigu Kannanoor Mariammen Kovil.
