TVK leader Vijay spoke in a video on September 30, three days after a stampede at his rally in Karur that killed 41 people on September 27. He said this was the most painful moment of his life. Vijay asked Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin to take any action against him personally, not his party members.
Vijay said his “ heart is heavy with pain” and thanked the people who came to see him during his tour. He said safety was always the top priority. TVK chose safe rally places and got police permission.
He explained that he did not go immediately to the Karur site to avoid more problems. He sent his condolences to families who lost loved ones and wished a quick recovery for the injured. He promised to meet the victims soon and thanked those who supported him.
