Hours before beginning his political campaign for the Tamil Nadu Assembly elections, actor-turned-politician Kamal Haasan criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi over the new parliament project.The founder of Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) on Sunday questioned what was the point of such a huge financial indulgence at a time when India’s economy was suffering severe trouble.
He took to his Twitter and wrote, “Why a 1,000-crore new Parliament when half of India is hungry, losing livelihood due to coronavirus. When thousands died as the Great Wall of China was being built, the rulers said it was to protect people. To protect whom are you building the Rs1,000-crore Parliament? Please answer my honourable elected PM”.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation stone for a new Parliament building on December 10. However, the construction of the building cannot start as the apex court is hearing petitions challenging the project.
