Chennai: State Fisheries Minister D. Jayakumar has ridiculed actor Kamal Haasan meeting Congress leaders saying he could as well meet Donald Trump (US president) and South Korea president Moon Jae-in.
Being a powerful organization, his party was not bothered about such meetings, Mr. Jayakumar said about Kamal’s meeting with Congress leaders Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi in New Delhi.
“As far as he is concerned, let him meet anyone, that is his right. Let him meet even Trump....there is no need for us to bother about such meetings since we are a powerful party and are with the people,” he told reporters here.
BJP senior and Union Minister of State for Finance and Shipping Pon Radhakrishnan said Haasan had met leaders of a party that had been “rejected by people”.
Speaking to reporters in Nagercoil, Mr. Radhakrishnan said, “he has flipped an old book...it is not a useful book, one that has been rejected by people and judged as unworthy.”
