Eight former senior activists of Persatuan Hindraf Malaysia (PHM) have received legal letters from the organisation for their differing views, said former national adviser N Ganesan.

Ganesan said the eight had left the organisation because of serious differences over policies with the PHM leadership, led by P Waythamoorthy.

Those who had received legal letters are K Tamilselvan, former vice-chairperson, who allegedly claimed that the acronym ‘Hindraf’ which stands for Hindu Rights Action Force, is not the exclusive right of PHM.
