PMK Founder S Ramadoss Hospitalized, Condition Stable

Pattali Makkal Katchi (PMK) founder Dr S Ramadoss has been admitted to a hospital in Chennai on Monday.

He is hospitalized for a cardiac evaluation, as per the party. However, he is expected to be discharged after the routine medical check-ups, PTI reported, citing sources.

The PMK founder was taken to the hospital on October 5, and his condition is stable. However, the PMK has appealed the fans not to panic over the development.

Meanwhile, his estranged son and former union minister Dr Ramadoss, paid a visit to the hospital. This is their first meeting since issues came into public in December 2024. The division has lead to S Ramadoss sacking his son from the post of the party president.

The issues between the father and son have stemmed from their stances on alliances with the next year's election. While the party founded wants to join hands with the DMK-led alliance, Anbumani wants to have ties with the NDA.

Despite their well-wishers trying to patch them up, the attempts have failed to come to fruition.

Meanwhile, Anbumani told the media as per the media: "I couldn't meet him but spoke to the doctors. There's nothing to worry. He'll be in the ICU for about six hours,"
