PMK founder S. Ramadoss was re-elected party president at a general council meeting, with resolutions empowering him to decide on alliances for the 2026 Assembly polls. His daughter, Sreegandhi Parasuraman, was elected working president, replacing Anbumani Ramadoss, who was expelled in October. The faction led by Anbumani, a former Union Health Minister, has called the meeting a "farce." S.
