TVK Holds First Major Meeting After Karur Stampede, Party Plans Statewide Tour, Revamp

Actor-turned-politician Vijay’s party, TVK, holds its first major meeting since the tragic Karur stampede that claimed 41 lives. The leadership is expected to revamp its 28-member administrative committee and chart a new strategy for Vijay’s statewide campaign ahead of the elections. Sources say the meeting will also focus on relief work during the monsoon and the party’s response to current political issues. Vijay, who joined via video call, recently met families of the victims and issued a sharp statement against the DMK government over farmers’ losses in the delta region.
