Actor-turned-politician and Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) chief Vijay has been summoned once again by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) to appear before investigators in New Delhi on Tuesday in connection with the probe into the Karur stampede case.
The fresh summons come at a time when political circles in Tamil Nadu are abuzz with speculation about possible alliance talks between the BJP and Vijay’s party ahead of the upcoming
Assembly elections.
Sources familiar with the investigation said the CBI has asked Vijay to appear at its headquarters for another round of questioning as part of its ongoing enquiry into the tragic stampede that occurred during his rally in Karur in September 2025.
The incident claimed several lives and left many others injured, triggering widespread criticism over crowd management and security arrangements at the event.
