Actor-politician Kamal Haasan attacked the AIADMK government in Tamil Nadu over the farm bills.
Chennai:
Actor-politician Kamal Haasan today slammed Tamil Nadu’s ruling AIADMK for supporting the three controversial farm bills and stressed the bills “attack the state’s autonomy”, and create a “dangerous situation wherein a state can do nothing amid scarcity or price rise”. Mr Haasan urged President Ram Nath Kovind to return the bills, passed last week, to the parliament for discussion.
“Chief Minister Edappadi K Palaniswami has betrayed Tamil Nadu farmers by supporting these bills,” Mr Haasan said in a statement, warning that farmers have the power to bury the government.
Tamil Nadu goes to polls next year. AIADMK is an ally of the BJP, which leads the central government.
