Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) has announced that actor-politician Vijay’s campaign will be postponed for two weeks.

Vijay started his campaign on September 13 in Tiruchi and had plans to tour several districts. But after the Karur stampede, where 41 people lost their lives, the party said it would not be right to continue immediately.

In a statement, TVK said that the upcoming public meetings are being postponed as a mark of respect to those who died. The new schedule will be announced later.

Earlier, Vijay expressed deep sorrow over the tragedy and blamed the state government for failing to ensure safety. He said the real truth behind the incident would come out soon.

The party will share the revised campaign plan once the two-week break ends.
