Chennai: Tamil superstar Rajinikanth today praised his contemporary and Makkal
Neethi Mayyam (MNM) founder Kamal Haasan, saying the "efficient" star
would earn people's confidence.
Responding to Haasan launching
his political party MNM at Madurai on Wednesday, Rajinikanth, who is
also set to take the political plunge, said though he and Haasan would
be taking different paths, their destination would be only public
welfare.
Meanwhile, responding to a question today,
Rajinikanth welcomed the all-party meeting convened by the Tamil Nadu
government yesterday to discuss the Cauvery issue.
The meeting,
chaired by Chief Minister K Palaniswami, was attended by DMK Working
President and state Leader of Opposition M K Stalin, among others.
The
meeting had decided that an all-party delegation will meet Prime
Minister Narendra Modi, urging him to set up the Cauvery Management
Board and Cauvery Water Regulatory Authority as per the apex court's
order to set up the bodies within six weeks.
The all-party meeting was held days after the Supreme Court reduced the quantum of Cauvery water to Tamil Nadu by 14.75 tmcft.
