Haasan, Rajinikanth join protest against copper plant in TN
Actors-turned-politicians Kamal Haasan and Rajinikanth have joined the protests against the expansion of the Sterlite copper plant in Tamil Nadu's Thoothukudi. In 2013, the Sterlite copper plant was fined by the Supreme Court for polluting the land and water in the area on account of a gas leak. Protestors are demanding the expansion plan be stopped and the plant shut.
