Around 41 people were killed last month in a stampede that took place at actor Vijay's Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK) rally in Karur. Following the incident, the actor-turned-politician had given compensation worth Rs 20 Lakh to the families of the deceased. Now, a woman of one of the victims who died has returned the compensation. Her move comes after the party chief met the families of the victims at a private hall near Mahabalipuram on Monday.

The woman identified as Shankavi Perumal reportedly claimed that she was upset as Vijay did not visit her in Karur to offer his condolences, and insteadinvited the families to a private resort in Mamallapuram to share his grief.
