41 innocent lives were crushed under chaos at Vijay’s Karur rally. Children, women, men — gone in an instant. And yet, instead of outrage, instead of demands for accountability, instead of grief for the families, what did the BJP’s top brass deliver? Silence. Worse than silence — open support.
Annamalai, tamilisai soundararajan, and others stood by Vijay, cushioning him from blame, as if political optics mattered more than the blood-soaked reality. The same bjp ecosystem and godi media that would amplify a street fight at a DMK tea shop into a “national shame” suddenly found its mute button when faced with mass death linked to their convenient political partner.
Vijay even dared to thank bjp leaders for standing by him — after 41 funerals. If this isn’t a grotesque display of political rot, what is?
1. 41 Dead, But bjp Chooses Silence
Not a single top bjp leader condemned Vijay outright. Not a single fiery press meet. Not a single demand for accountability. The BJP’s rage machine, which can roar over the smallest DMK mishap, suddenly forgot how to bark.
2. Annamalai: Defender of the Indefensible
Tamil Nadu bjp chief Annamalai, known for chest-thumping lectures on law and order, didn’t dare raise a finger at Vijay. Instead, he stood with him. Imagine — the man who brands himself “Mr. Accountability” shielding someone under whose watch 41 people died.
3. Tamilisai’s Support — salt in the Wounds
Former governor tamilisai soundararajan, who never misses a chance to attack DMK, chose to comfort Vijay. For the grieving families, this was like watching political leaders spit on their pain while patting the back of the man at the centre of it all.
4. Godi Media’s Hypocrisy Laid Bare
If a DMK ward member so much as fought at a roadside parotta stall, primetime anchors would scream “Jungle Raj!” But when 41 actual citizens died in a rally mess caused by Vijay’s party? tv debates went missing. No hashtags. No moral outrage. Just silence — because their script didn’t allow it.
5. Selective Outrage, Selective Justice
This is not about Vijay alone. This is about a system that weaponises outrage when it suits political narratives and buries outrage when it doesn’t. The BJP’s silence is not neutrality. It’s complicity.
6. Vijay’s Thank You Speech — An Insult to the Dead
In the ultimate act of tone-deafness, Vijay went on to thank bjp leaders for their support. Imagine thanking politicians for shielding you, while families are still conducting funerals. It’s beyond disgusting — it’s inhuman.
7. The Message: Political Deals Matter More Than Lives
The biggest lesson from Karur isn’t about crowd control. It’s about how indian politics values alliances over accountability. For the bjp, defending Vijay mattered more than demanding justice for 41 lost lives.
Closing Punch:
The Karur tragedy isn’t just about a leader’s failure. It’s about how an entire political ecosystem chose complicity over conscience. Vijay walks free, thanked and comforted. bjp leaders smile by his side. The dead? Forgotten. Their families? Betrayed. Their justice? Sold for political convenience.
