"Denied Education To Many Children": Kamal Haasan Slams NEET | Read

Actor and politician Kamal Haasan made a powerful political and social statement on Sunday, declaring that only education has the power to "break the chains of dictatorship and Sanatana ideology". Speaking at the 15th anniversary celebrations of actor Suriya's Agaram Foundation, Mr Haasan strongly criticised the NEET medical entrance exam and its impact on marginalised communities in Tamil Nadu. "Since 2017, this has denied education to so many children," Mr Haasan said, referring to NEET. "Even Agaram Foundation can't do anything about it. Only education can give the strength to change the law. Education is not just a weapon in this war, it is the chisel that can sculpt the nation," he said.
