Kamal reaches out to MNM cadre
The Hindu
He also personally speaks to party candidates who lost in the Assembly poll
Makkal Needhi Maiam founder Kamal Haasan is holding discussions with his party’s defeated candidates (Assembly poll) and office-bearers at the lower level, reassuring them that they would have more access to party “leadership” and powers to take decisions. Mr. Haasan has faced a tough post-election scenario as most of the immediate second-line office-bearers, including the vice-president and several general secretaries, left the party. They accused him of authoritarianism and raised doubts over transparency, including in matters of finances lending credence to speculation that he was merely trying to split votes. The party, which made a decent start in 2019 Lok Sabha election garnering close to 4% of the votes, could get only 3% voteshare while not winning any seat.
