Overview
- Sathya’s membership was terminated after the disciplinary committee found violations under Sections 19, 35 and 41 of the party constitution.
- The party order directed him to immediately return all organisational documents and assets.
- The expulsion capped months of friction that included an August suspension and a show-cause notice under Rule 35(6) restricting use of party symbols.
- Leadership accusations included ignoring warnings, misusing position and issuing public statements that harmed the party’s image.
- Sathya rejects the charges as baseless and points to past service, while observers link the rift to a broader shift as Durai Vaiko’s role grows.
