BJP leader Nainar Nagendran has raised 12 questions to Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin after the Karur stampede that killed 41 people.
The tragedy took place during actor-politician Vijayās public meeting in Karur. Nagendran visited the families of the victims as part of a BJP fact-finding team.
He questioned why permission was given for the meeting at the bus stand area, how crowd control failed, and why the incident is not being investigated by a central agency like the CBI. He also asked about the policeās crowd estimates, the lack of safety measures, and the reasons for immediate government statements during an ongoing inquiry.
Nagendran accused the state government of trying to shield responsibility and demanded full accountability. He said only a fair and transparent probe can bring out the truth behind the tragedy.
