Chennai, Sept. 11 -- Amid the ongoing rift in the Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK), party founder S Ramadoss removed his son and PMK Working President Anbumani Ramadoss from the party.

Ramadoss said that the action has been taken as Anbumani failed to respond despite being given two opportunities to give an explanation for the charges against him.

S Ramadoss alleged that his son is "destroying" PMK and asked the party workers not to maintain ties with him.

"Anbumani is trying to destroy the PMK. He is unfit to be a politician and has acted arbitrarily. Without me, Anbumani would not have grown. No one from the PMK should maintain any ties with Anbumani. Only 10-15 people are with him," he said.

This comes after the PMK's Disciplinary Actio...
