Fuziah confirms Xavier Jayakumar's return to PKR
KUALA LUMPUR: Former PKR vice-president Dr Xavier Jayakumar has returned to the party, with secretary-general Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh confirming the development.
Recently, Dr Xavier Jayakumar, the erstwhile vice-president of the People's Justice Party (PKR), has rejoined the party, according to secretary-general Datuk Dr Fuziah Salleh. The positive news emerged in the wake of PKR president Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim's apology to veteran members at the party's national congress on August 15th.
Jayakumar's resignation from PKR in March 2021 was due to his dissatisfaction with the party's direction, despite his subsequent support for the government under then-Prime Minister Tan Sri Muhyiddin Yassin. Following his resignation, PKR demanded RM10 million in compensation from Jayakumar, who had held key positions such as water, land, and natural resources minister and represented Kuala Langat in Parliament until the 15th General Election in 2022.
