With just eight days to go for the Bukit Selambau by-election in Kedah, PKR has been dealt a blow with the resignation of its Jerai division chief B Kalaivanar with some 500 supporters today.
The influential local leader relinquished all his party posts due to a disagreement with PKR supremo Anwar Ibrahim and his unhappiness with the Pakatan Rakyat state government.Kalaivanar is also peeved that Anwar had overlooked him as candidate for the state seat, saying that the opposition leader had forgotten all that the former did for the party.
"I am very unhappy with Anwar and PKR. The party has not done anything for the Indian community," he told a press conference at a golf club in Sungai Petani.
