DMK acts against its own, Alagiri expelled - NewsX

  • 5 years ago
Tamil Nadu's best-known political family feud has just climaxed with MK Alagiri being suspended from the DMK, the party headed by his father, M Karunanidhi. Mr Alagiri, 62, is the DMK chief's older son.He has been involved in an aggressive and lengthy tug-of-war for control of the party with his brother, MK Stalin.

The DMK said that Mr Alagiri stands suspended from all party positions and membership for indiscipline.

Mr Karunanidhi, who is 89, has been making it clear that Mr Stalin will be his political successor. In a series of unsubtle moves, Mr Alagiri has tried to contest that, even announcing in 2010 that after his father steps down as

President, the DMK should hold elections for its top post and that he would enter the race.
