Should students enter politics? Kamal and Rajini have two very different views
While Rajini urged students to not indulge in politicking, Kamal said that students owe to their nation to remain politically vigilant.
“I ask you the same question former President APJ Abdul Kalam asked.
I’m not asking you to become politicians.
I ask you to carefully watch your politics.
On the other hand, Rajinikanth, addressing students at MGR University, said, “I ask students not to participate in politics.
“Because students of my generation failed to stay vigilant about politics, I believe we are in this situation right now.
“I thought I'm an artist … I’ll stay away and let them do their job.
Meanwhile, Rajinikanth said that he had decided to enter the fray to fill the vacuum the state was seeing: “They ask why I didn't enter when Jayalalithaa was ruling.
Did I come to politics because of a vacuum?
There is a vacuum ... for a good leader.
