MIC president S Vigneswaran wants Umno president Ahmad Zahid Hamidi to throw his support behind Deputy Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob to take over the premiership.
His call followed Bersatu president Muhyiddin Yassin's indication that he will resign as the prime minister later today, after Zahid and 14 other Umno MPs withdrew their support for him, costing Muhyiddin his majority.
Another 23 Umno MPs, including Ismail Sabri, continued to back Muhyiddin but at 100 MPs, it was still 11 short of a simple majority. There are 220 MPs in the Dewan Rakyat and two vacant seats.
