Tamil actor Kamal Haasan has been politically active for quite some time now, through his political party Makkal Needhi Maiam. Speaking to the media recently, Kamal said that the fact that the government offices are asking for a bribe for every single thing they have to do for the people is a sad state of affairs.
Kamal criticized the current AIADMK government for paying a deaf ear and a blind eye towards the bribe culture prevalent in the governmental offices and even criticized the government for directly or indirectly letting the bribe culture go on.
As part of his plan, Kamal released the Bribe Rate Card, in which the bribes for each work are listed out. He asked if anyone has the guts to deny the facts mentioned in the rate card, and said that no one can do so as everything mentioned in the card are but facts. He also expressed confidence in the people, to take to the notice of the governor the facts about bribing in the state.
Kamal also said that he plans to establish a third front in the upcoming Tamil Nadu general elections. He said that he is elated by the fact that women are supporting his party very much, and that there’s a good following for his party among women.
Kamal promised that he would distribute computers with an internet connection to every single household in case his party came to power in the upcoming elections and also said that he plans to digitalize the functioning of his government in the state.
பிறப்பு முதல் இறப்பு வரையிலான சான்றிதழ்களுக்கும், சேவைகளுக்கும் தமிழகம் முழுக்க நடைமுறையில் இருக்கும் லஞ்சப் பட்டியல் இது. மறைக்க முடியுமா? மறுக்க முடியுமா? மறக்க முடியுமா? #நான்_கேட்பேன் pic.twitter.com/hJLpQ1XG9s
