The Election Commission has officially recognized Anbumani Ramadoss as President of the Pattali Makkal Katchi party. This decision emerged after Anbumani conducted a general council meeting on August 9 that appointed him to the leadership position. The commission reviewed documentation submitted between August 10 and 11 before confirming his authority. Party founder Dr. S. Ramadoss has reportedly requested a meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding this development. The father-son dispute has divided the political organization for several months.

Anbumani enjoys support from three of five party legislators and most organizational members. General Secretary Vadivel Ravanan, Treasurer Thilagavathi Bama, and over ninety percent of general council participants back his leadership. The Ramadoss faction disputes this outcome and plans court action. Senior party officials met with the Chief Election Commissioner on September 17 seeking reversal of the recognition decision. Advisers believe Prime Minister Modi maintains personal respect for Dr. Ramadoss despite BJP support for Anbumani.
