CPI(M) Expresses Shock and Sorrow Over the Tragic Stampede in Karur, Tamil
Nadu

 

The Communist Party of India (Marxist) expresses deep shock and sorrow at
the tragic loss of 39 innocent lives in a stampede during a political rally
organised by the TVK Party, led by its founder and film actor Vijay, in
Karur, Tamil Nadu. Scores of people were also injured in the stampede.

 

It is unfortunate that people who had gathered in large numbers to catch a
glimpse of the film star lost their lives due to the chaos and mismanagement
at the venue by the organisers and the local authorities.

 

In this moment of unexpected tragedy, the Party extends its deepest
condolences and heartfelt sympathies to the bereaved families.
