DMK leader TKS Elangovan reiterated Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin’s statement that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) was using the Karur stampede tragedy for political mileage. He slammed the BJP for sending a fact-finding team to Karur.
He alleged that if the BJP filed a case against Vijay, then the actor would be compelled to join the BJP.
TKS Elangovan said, “People were made to wait from 8 am. Vijay was about to speak at 12 pm, but they were made to wait until 7.30 pm in the scorching sun without water or food. Any fool can understand that this is the reason why people faint. But nobody took care of the people who fainted there. They rushed to see Vijay. When Vijay arrived, the people were already in a bad state. In this situation, anybody will understand the reason behind this.
