This special report focuses on the Supreme Court ordering a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe into the Karur stampede, which claimed 41 lives during a rally by actor Vijay’s party, Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK). The Supreme Court said that the tragedy had ‘shaken the national conscience’ and emphasized the need for a thorough probe to allay concerns of all parties. The decision is a significant blow to the M.K. Stalin-led DMK government. The apex court also constituted a three-member supervisory committee, headed by former Supreme Court Judge Ajay Rastogi, to monitor the CBI investigation. In a stern rebuke, the court heavily criticised the Madras High Court for ordering a Special Investigation Team (SIT) probe without any plea and for taking up the matter despite jurisdictional issues. The political fallout continues, with the DMK facing allegations of double standards, having previously sought a CBI probe in other cases.
