In just about a week since the DMK patriarch Kalaigniar Karunanidhi passed away the rift within his family is coming out in the open.

Karunanidhi's eldest son M.K.Azhagiri along with his wife Ganthi, son Dayanidhi and daughter Kayalvizhi visited his father's memorial this morning and paid floral tribute.  Later, speaking to news persons he said that he was pouring  his deepest dissatisfaction on the grave.  He asserted that the entire followers of his father are on his side and the result for that would be known in the future.

When asked whether his displeasure is with the family or party he vaguely answered it's the party.  Political analysts believe that this is a clear signal that the Karunanidhi family war has already begun.
