Vijay’s party alleges DMK conspiracy in Karur stampede
**Investigation Plea**
TVK lawyer Arivazhagan, who also serves as the state coordinator of TVK’s legal wing, announced that they will approach the Madurai bench of the High Court on Monday. He alleged that “there was a conspiracy, a criminal conspiracy in the incident at Karur,” and called for an independent investigation by the court instead of a state agency.
Arivazhagan emphasized that they have reliable information from locals and CCTV footage indicating the involvement of ruling party functionaries in Karur district.

**We Did Not Violate Any Conditions: TVK**
The DMK government alleged that the rally violated safety guidelines. However, Arivazhagan refuted these claims, stating, “We did not violate any conditions imposed by the police.”
He further pointed out that similar events were held in other districts without any incident and questioned why Karur was different. He cited rallies held in Madurai, Trichy, Ariyalur, Thiruvarur, Nagapattinam, and Namakkal over the past two months as examples.

**Delay Due to Traffic, Not a Deliberate Attempt to Swell Crowd**
The state government claimed that people had gathered at the rally venue since noon, but Vijay arrived only around 7:00 PM.
Responding to this, the TVK lawyer said, “The delay was not on our part. The delay was caused due to poor traffic. That is the reason we could not reach the destination on time.”
Although the venue had a capacity of around 10,000, it attracted a crowd of approximately 27,000.
