Chennai, Sep 16: “Why should the rule of no work no pay apply only to government employees? It should be applicable to MLAs also,” said multi-language film actor Kamal Hassan.
He is preparing to start a new political party at the end of the month. He had tweeted on Friday objecting 19 MLAs of ruling AIADMK staying in resorts in Madikeri and near Chennai. He asked why the rule of no work no pay does not apply to MLAs who are staying for horse trading.
“School teachers in Tamil Nadu had protested that their salaries be increased to Rs 33,000. But they resumed duties after high court took them to task. The high court should take action against MLAs also,” he said in the tweet.
He stressed that his new party will give importance to the work of elected representatives.
