Mauritian Social Democrat Party

PMSD: Parti Mauricien Social D�mocrate

Sir Ga�tan Duval (1930-1996) was the leader of the Mauritian Social Democrat Party (in French, Parti Mauricien Social D�mocrate, PMSD), founded in 1953 and once partisan of the integration of Mauritius to the United Kingdom. Ga�tan Duval�s succession was not easy and the party split into the PMSD, led by Maurice Allet and keeping the original party�s emblem, the rooster, and the PMXD, founded by Sir Ga�tan�s son Xavier Duval and using the horse as its emblem. Attempts to reconciliate the two factions have failed since then and the PMSD is still in the opposition.
