Why Kamal Haasan is 'Unhappy' about Modi's 20 Lakh Crore Economic Package?

Actor-turned-Politician Kamal Haasan on Sunday yet again slammed the Tamil Nadu government over reopening of TASMAC liquor shops.

"What direct benefits did Tamil Nadu get out of the 20-lakh crore Special Economic package announced by the central government?" Mr Haasan asked through a tweet.

He further went on to say that the Tamil Nadu government is reluctant about demanding its monetary share from the Centre.

After the Supreme Court stayed the Madras High Court’s order on closure of TASMAC shops, token-based sales of liquor began across the state from yesterday. These shops would function between 10 am and 5 pm and each shop can  issue only 500 tokens per day.

However, owing to the increasing number of COVID-19 cases, it was announced that TASMAC liquor shops in Chennai and Thiruvallur will remain closed. Also, those in Malls, Shopping Complexes and Containment Areas will not function.

20 லட்சம் கோடி அறிவிப்பில் தமிழ்நாட்டிற்கு நேரடி பயன் எவ்வளவு?

மாநிலத்திற்கு நியாயமாக வர வேண்டியதைக் கேட்டால் எங்கே எஜமானர் மனசு கோணி விடுமே என்ற பயம்.

ஆகவே டாஸ்மாக்கில் மக்கள் உயிரைப் பணயம் வைத்து பணம் பறிக்கிறது அம்மா அரசு என்ற பெயரில் இயங்கும் அடிமை அரசு.
