|October 02, 2025
Actor-politician Vijay's rallies scheduled for the next two weeks are being "temporarily postponed", his party Tamilaga Vetri Kazhagam (TVK) said on Wednesday, with the development coming days after 41 people were killed in a stampede at his rally in Tamil Nadu's Karur district on September 27.
"In this situation where we are in pain and sorrow over the loss of our loved ones, the public meeting programme of our party leader for the next two weeks is being temporarily postponed," TVK said in a post on X. "New details regarding these public meetings will be announced later."
At least 41 people, including women and children, were killed in the stampede at Vijay's political rally on September 27. On Tuesday, Vijay, in a recorded video statement, broke his silence on the incident and accused the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK)-led state government of sabotaging his rally. He also targeted Tamil Nadu chief minister MK Stalin.
