Actor Kamal Haasan who has been vociferously raising his voice against the Tamil Nadu State Government on various issues has also been speaking on the NEET issue which is unfortunately one of the reason's for TN medical aspirant Anita's most untimely death.

Kamal is currently in Kerala where he met the Chief Minister Pinarayi Vjayan for lunch at the latter's official residence. After the meeting, Kamal addressed the press persons from Kerala. When asked about Anita's suicide Kamal has called for a joint struggle cutting across caste and religious lines against NEET.

Kamal said he is pained to know about the death of Anitha, who is like his daughter. He has said everyone, including the leaders like Tirumavalavan should unite and struggle to get justice for the state in the NEET issue. He also said all the people should set aside their religious and caste differences and take part in this struggle. In a clear hint about the alleged inaction of the ruling AIADMK Government in Tamil Nadu , Kamal said those who were responsible to have involved in talks to safeguard the state from NEET were involved in negotiations to save their party.

A few weeks ago, Union Minister Nirmala Seetharaman said that the Union Government will help the Tamil Nadu Government from getting exempted from NEET for this year. At that time Kamal had tweeted urging the State Government ministers to involve in talks and save the students' rights Read Here: Kamal Haasan's latest tweet on NEET
