Chennai: PMK founder Dr S Ramadoss on Sunday said that his party would move the Madras High Court seeking a direction to ensure free and fair conduct of ensuing local body polls. After releasing his party's 14th draft shadow budget here, he said that his party would petition the state election commission to prevent the ruling AIADMK plan to win the elections through any means.
