Numerous people lost consciousness due to the large throng and had to be admitted to local hospitals.
Vijay offered his sincere condolences and promised financial support to the impacted families in the wake of this unfortunate catastrophe. He declared that the families of the deceased would receive Rs 20 lakh apiece, while the injured would receive Rs 2 lakh each. Vijay conveyed his own sorrow at the event. He said that such accidents shouldn’t happen at political rallies because of inadequate security and administration.
A plea to bar Vijay’s party, TVK, from hosting any public gatherings, rallies, or events until the Karur stampede probe is finished was considered by the Madras High Court on Sunday. The state administration was instructed to respond by Justice N. Senthilkumar, who also ordered an urgent hearing.
