The MIC faction led by G Palanivel has announced their own central working committee (CWC) election dates, slated for September.
This was decided after his committee held a meeting today.
Another faction led by Dr S Subramaniam had announced earlier that the CWC election would be completed by October.
For now, it would appear that MIC is headed towards having two separate annual general meetings and two elections.
Subramaniam claimed that the Registrar of Societies had recognised him as the acting president of MIC and that Palanivel was no longer a party member.
However, Palanivel told reporters today that Subramaniam had taken the letter out of context, but did not elaborate on the matter.
Previously, Palanivel had claimed that the CWC had resolved to suspend Subramaniam's party membership for a year.
MIC's ongoing leadership crisis can be traced back to December last year, when the ROS nulified the results of the 2013 CWC election and ordering fresh elections.
Following this, Palanivel had took the ROS to court to challenge the ROS decision. Subramaniam's faction claimed that Palanivel had automatically ceased to be a party member as Article 91 of the MIC constitution forbids any member from taking party matters to court.
