📰 Madras HC Slams Vijay & TVK After Karur Stampede 💔⚖️

TL;DR: After 41 deaths at Vijay’s TVK rally in Karur, the Madras High Court blasted the party for showing “no remorse” and formed a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe the tragedy. 🚨

Main Story

⚖️ Justice N. Senthilkumar said Vijay’s disappearance after the incident showed “poor leadership.” He also pulled up the Tamil Nadu government for going soft on the organisers.

🕊️ The tragedy struck on 27 Sept 2025 at TVK’s Karur rally, where chaos and overcrowding led to a stampede killing 41 people, including women and children.

👮‍♀️ The SIT, led by IG Asra Garg (North Zone), will probe how safety norms were ignored and why the campaign bus kept moving despite two-wheelers stuck beneath it.

The judge said: “The court cannot close its eyes or remain a mute spectator. This was a man-made disaster.”

So far, nine FIRs have been filed against TVK functionaries, including district secretary Mathiyalagan and state leaders Bussy Anand and CTR Nirmalkumar.

People’s Angle 💭

Grief turned into anger in Tamil Nadu. Youth and families asked — “Who takes responsibility when lives are lost for politics?” 😔Social media is flooded with clips of the rally chaos, demanding accountability from both TVK and the state.

MediaFx Take 🎙️

When politics turns into a stampede, it’s not just crowds but trust that gets crushed.Vijay’s silence feels louder than any slogan — it’s time for leaders to remember, people’s lives > party pride. 💔
