KUALA LUMPUR: The PKR party election saga has taken a new twist with Padang Serai MP N. Gobalakrishan threatening to quit the party unless election irregularities are addressed.
He also accused deputy president aspirant Azmin Ali of manipulation and criticised the election committee, calling it spineless.
He said the committee was not independent and would only make decisions after consulting certain people.
“If the party fails in ensuring democracy and transparency, it is pointless for me to continue,” he told a press conference at the Parliament lobby yesterday.
Asked if Azmin was the power behind the election committee, Gobalakrishnan said: “I think there is no one else but him.”
He claimed that Azmin had been manipulating the party election results and that his working relationship with Kedah and Selangor had suffered because of Azmin.
Gobalakrishnan also accused Selangor executive councillor Xavier Jayakumar of teaming up with Azmin.
He claimed that Xavier’s family members were involved in manipulating the elections in several divisions, including Kelana Jaya and Hulu Selangor.
“Yet, no action has been taken against him. Is it because Azmin had taken him along to Jakarta for a meeting?” he asked.
Azmin, when met later, said the Jakarta meeting with party adviser Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, which was also attended by many others, was not a secret as it had been planned months in advance.
He also brushed off Gobalakrishnan’s allegations regarding election manipulation.
“How can I manipulate the votes?
“Every member has one vote and they have to turn up and cast their votes.
“Members of election committees and secretariats are in every division (during the election),” he said.
Azmin said he did not understand why some disgruntled members were using him as a punching bag to vent their frustration.
tunku : how come sivaji the boss did nothing to azmin who had called gobalakrishnan a pariah? how can he take any action on azmin when azmin is his blue eyed boy and they have "special" relationship. after all i believe anwar calls gobala a pariah too behind his back.that is anwar's nature. anwar is among the most racist person in malaysia other than lim kit siang, karpal sing ,lim guan eng(that's why they can stand together) and he had fooled the non malays that he is with them.behind them, he say all sorts of thing and in front them he becomes their saint, their sivaji etc.same goes with the dap leaders.leave pakatan, it is a dynasty party with full of dirts in it.

PKR is in deep shit. There aren't any real race unity in the party, just a bold front to mis-lead others.
