Two senior leaders of actor-turned-politician Vijay’s party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), including his close confidant N Anand, have been booked for culpable homicide not amounting to murder following a deadly stampede at a rally in Karur that left 39 people dead and several injured.

N Anand, TVK’s General Secretary and a former MLA from Puducherry, is widely known as Bussy Anand due to his previous representation of the Bussy constituency in the Puducherry Assembly. He is effectively considered the second-in-command within the party, according to an NDTV report.

In addition to Anand, others named in the police case include TVK Joint General Secretary CT Nirmal Kumar, the party's Karur West District Secretary Mathiyazhagan, and three more individuals, reports added.
