Posters demanding actor-politician Vijay's arrest appeared across Karur on Monday after a stampede at his rally killed 41 people, and injured more than 60 others on Saturday night. The Tamil Nadu Students' Union claimed responsibility for the signs, but unidentified individuals removed them within hours. Victims of the Velusamypuram tragedy ranged from a two-year-old boy to an engaged couple aged 24.

Vijay has not visited bereaved families or hospitalized survivors since the disaster. He announced compensation of 2 million rupees per death, and 200,000 rupees for injured victims through social media on Sunday. The politician requested a federal investigation, and alleged political conspiracy caused the crowd crush.

Chief Minister M.K. Stalin visited survivors at a government hospital early on Sunday morning. Retired Justice Aruna Jagadeesan began investigating the incident, and will determine potential action against Vijay's party.
