In a significant development ahead of General Elections, DMK president M Karunanidhi on Tuesday permanently expelled elder son MK Alagiri from the party, two months after suspending him. <br /><br />Karunanidhi said he along with DMK general secretary K Anbazhagan decided to expel Alagiri because his son was critical of the party in the run-up to the Lok Sabha election and causing confusion in the minds of DMK members and supporters. <br /><br />A defiant Alagiri told a news agency: "I have no reaction (to my dismissal). I just had lunch, and want to sleep peacefully. I am not the loser. They are the losers." <br /><br />Asked if he would float a new party, he said: "As of now I have no such plans. Everything will be decided after discussing with my supporters." <br /><br />Last week, the DMK had threatened disciplinary action against party members if they were found to be in touch with Alagiri. <br /><br />In a statement, Anbazhagan had said Alagiri was causing confusion by organising meetings on the pretext of meeting his supporters.<br /><br /><br />For More information on this news visit : http://www.newsx.com/<br />Connect with us on Social platform at : http://www.facebook.com/newsxonline<br />Subscribe to our YouTube Channel : http://www.youtube.com/newsxlive
