Vijay was to come at 12 noon, arrived 7 hrs later: Police as 39 killed in stampede
After a stampede at a TVK rally killed 39 people, Tamil Nadu police said actor-politician Vijay was supposed to arrive at 12 noon, but he came over seven hours later at 7:30 pm. The crowd swelled due to Vijay's late arrival for the event in Karur. "My heart and mind are overwhelmed with profound heaviness," he said about the stampede.
