Tamil Nadu: DMK Leader Sivaji Krishnamurthy Expelled, Arrested For 'Derogatory' Remarks Against BJP's Khushbu Sundar

BJP state president K Annamalai recalled Krishnamurthy's controversial speech about Governor R N Ravi some time ago and said that the platform speaker's comments about both the constitutional leader as well as Sundar are highly condemnable

Tamil Nadu's ruling DMK expelled a party member Sivaji Krishnamurthy after his purported remarks aimed at BJP leader and actor Khushbu Sundar and Governor RN Ravi. 

In a party statement, DMK general secretary Duraimurugan announced the expulsion of Krishnamurthy. "Sivaji Krishnamurthy is being dismissed from all party posts, including the primary membership, for violating party discipline and bringing disrepute to it," he said.

Krishnamurty was also arrested on Sunday evening.

Tagging an unverified video to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin, Khushbu Sundar said, "What you don't realise is he not only insults me, but you & a great leader like your father. The more space you provide him, the more political space you will lose. Your party is becoming a safe haven for uncouth hooligans. It's such a shame."
