Kamal Haasan to attend gram sabha in Kanchi village today

Party sources said the actor-politician will attend the gram sabha at Kaliyampoondi village as an observer. 

Kamal had been encouraging citizens to take active part in democracy by calling for their participation in gram sabhas ever since the inception of his party.

Earlier on Monday, Kamal acknowledged the legacy of late actor Sivaji Ganesan on his birth anniversary and visited the latter’s residence in T Nagar. Kamal interacted with Sivaji’s family members, including his sons Prabhu and Ramkumar. The 63-year-old also tweeted in praise of the thespian, calling him the father of acting.
