Makkal Needhi Maiam president Kamal Haasan speaks to the media after a meeting with Election Commissioner at Nirvachan Sadan in New Delhi on June 20, 2018.

Makkal Needhi Maiam (MNM), floated by actor Kamal Haasan, was on June 22 registered as a political party by the Election Commission and it would receive the registration documents early next week. Sources in the EC said that the documents filed by Mr. Haasan have been processed and the registration granted.

 

“The party will get the relevant documents early next week. The formal letter was sent today,” a senior functionary said. Mr. Haasan in February launched MNM (people justice centre) in the presence of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and others.

The party’s flag, in white background, has six hands joined together, with shades of red over three hands and the rest in white. A star can be seen in the centre, surrounded by a star-like background in black.
