The Karur stampede on September 27 claimed the lives of atleast 41 people and left several people injured. The incident took place at Velusamypuram, at the Karur-Erode Highway, after a large crowd gathered for the political rally.
Nagendra raised several questions about the incident, including who had switched off the power supply and who had thrown footwear that may have contributed to the stampede.
The former interim general secretary of the AIADMK, VK Sasikala, on Monday demanded a probe by a central agency into the Karur stampede tragedy, stating that only such an inquiry would reveal the truth behind the incident.
