Opposition Leader R. Ashok's Statement in Bengaluru:
The Karur tragedy has stunned the entire nation; such an incident has not occurred anywhere else in the country. Even small children have lost their lives.
In the Bengaluru stampede, 11 people died, which was a massive shock to us. Now, an even bigger disaster has unfolded, causing widespread dismay among the public.
The DMK government is shirking responsibility and trying to pin the blame on Vijay. Why did Vijay seek permission for the venue? Why did the local government grant approval?Also Read: Asia Cup 2025 Final: India vs Pakistan Cricket Battle - Team India Aims to Teach Pakistan a Lesson with the Bat
Vijay came, held the rally, and left—there's fault on his part too. Vijay has not apologized or visited the hospitals.
The state government's role is the biggest; the state government is responsible for the tragedy. The government granted permission for the event and failed to maintain law and order. The DMK government is the direct cause of the deaths.
The BJP demands that this tragedy be investigated by sitting judges.
Ashok's remarks underscore the political blame game intensifying amid the grief, with calls for accountability from both the organizers and authorities.
