PSM has come to the defense of Muda president Syed Saddiq Syed Abdul Rahman amid the criticism of the latter for quitting the government bloc in Parliament.

In doing so, PSM deputy chairperson Arutchelvan referred to DAP secretary-general Anthony Loke's comment that Syed Saddiq is obliged to support the coalition government, as the latter "owed" his victory in the Muar parliamentary seat in the 15th general election (GE15) to Pakatan Harapan’s backing.
