A power cut and a narrow venue choice at TVK Chief Vijay's rally in Karur have raised suspicions of foul play, according to BJP parliamentarian Hema Malini.

During the event on September 27, a tragic stampede in Velusamypuram claimed 41 lives and injured nearly 60, prompting an inquiry by an eight-member NDA delegation.

Hema Malini, who led the investigation, criticized local authorities for their decision-making, calling the venue allocation 'inappropriate.' She noted the unusual power cut during the rally as a potential sign of something 'fishy' and unnatural.
