KUALA LUMPUR: MIC president Datuk Seri Dr S. Subramaniam is warning members who challenge the decisions of the party leadership that disciplinary action could be taken against them.
Dr Subramaniam said individuals and groups must stop making public statements requesting for seats.
“Any attempt to sabotage the election campaign by any member will be dealt with seriously. The BN supreme council has decided that component parties should expel or suspend such members,” he said.

He added that MIC would nominate candidates with a good chance of winning.
He said potential candidates would be assessed on multiple modalities, including grassroot feedback, call centre assessment and feedback from the BN war room.
“Candidates who have a poor chance of winning may be replaced by those who have better chances of winning.
“It is the intention of the party to win as many seats as possible. I hope potential candidates and leaders realise this. “While individuals are important, the party is more important,” he said, adding he hoped that all leaders would rise above self interest and fight for the party.
“Our willingness to work together and our unity is vital. If we are united and pool our resources we can have a great victory. Be prepared for a great fight.”
