I support One Nation One Election, says Rajinikanth

Chennai, July 15: Actor-turned-politician Rajinikanth has lent his support to PM Narendra Modi's push for holding simultaneous elections in the entire country.

Speaking to media, Rajinikanth said,''I support One Nation One Election. This will save money and time.''

He also said a decision on contesting in the general elections will be taken later. Rajinikanth had earlier said his party would contest in the next assembly elections.

Speaking on the proposed Chennai-Salem eight-lane expressway, Rajinikanth said such projects would bring in industrial investments. However, he said, the government should see that only minimum farm land is acquired for the project and the land owners are compensated to the extent that they feel happy.

Earlier, a number of opposition leaders had expressed their views in favour of PM Narendra Modi's push for holding simultaneous elections for Assembly and Lok Sabha.
