The Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK), one of Tamil Nadu’s key caste-based political parties, is facing an unprecedented internal crisis that threatens its very foundation. At the center of the storm is a bitter feud between the party’s founder, Dr. S. Ramadoss, and his son, Dr. Anbumani Ramadoss, over leadership control and the future direction of the party.

The rift exploded into the public eye during the PMK’s general council meeting in Villupuram in late 2024, where Dr. S. Ramadoss appointed his grandson, Parasuraman Mukundan, as the youth wing president—a decision fiercely opposed by Anbumani Ramadoss, who argued that Mukundan lacked the experience to hold such a key post. The disagreement quickly escalated into a heated on-stage exchange that stunned party cadres and political observers alike, with Dr. S. Ramadoss asserting his absolute authority by challenging dissenters to leave the party.
In a dramatic turn of events, Dr. S. Ramadoss later reasserted his control by demoting Anbumani from party president to working president—sparking fresh protests from Anbumani’s supporters, who insisted that only the general council could remove a party president. Anbumani, caught between loyalty to his father and his own political ambitions, initially expressed confusion about his demotion but later reaffirmed his commitment to following his father’s guidance.
The PMK’s internal strife has raised serious questions about the party’s commitment to democratic leadership and its earlier promise to avoid dynastic politics—an image now tarnished by the appointment of Dr. S. Ramadoss’ grandson to a prominent position. Analysts warn that this public spat could weaken the PMK’s position ahead of the 2026 Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, as both factions scramble to assert their vision for the party’s future.
Despite Dr. S. Ramadoss’ repeated claims that there is “no rift” between him and his son, the underlying tensions remain unresolved. The father-son clash has turned into a defining test for the PMK’s unity, resilience, and its relevance in Tamil Nadu’s rapidly changing political landscape. Will the PMK emerge from this crisis stronger, or will the feud mark the beginning of its decline? Only time—and the party’s ability to reconcile its internal contradictions—will tell.
