When Finance Minister Arun Jaitley cancelled his appointments

March 25, 2017 12:12

On Saturday, Finance Minister cancelled appointments given to 2 actors from Tamil Nadu, as they provided misleading reasons for the meeting.

According to sources, the two actors got appointments with the finance minister after the intervention of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu. The two actors sought meetings under the pretext of sorting out their personal issues, but later told the minister's office that their purpose for meeting was to discuss the Tamil farmers' problems.

Sources said that Jaitley got angry and told off the TDP leadership.
