Chennai, Dec 5 : Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM) leader Kamal Haasan on Saturday came out in support of Anna University Vice Chancellor M.K.Surappa and said if a person is hunted down for being honest then the actor will not remain silent.
Kamal Haasan also wondered whether Surappa is another Nambi Narayanan, the space scientist who was falsely framed on a spy case.
In a video message posted on his Twitter handle Kamal Haasan said Surappa is an upright honest person and does not bend before the powers that be.
The MNM leader said Surappa wanted to take Tamil Nadu’s technical education to great heights, however, this was not tolerated by the corrupt in the state.
“If a person does not bend, then he will be broken is their explanation,” Kamal Haasan said.
He said based on an anonymous letter written by a coward the state government has appointed a commission of inquiry against Surappa.
