Chennai: TVK chief and Actor Vijay lashed at the Tamil Nadu government over the Kallakurichi Hooch tragedy.
"The news of the death of more than 25 people after consuming fake liquor in Karunapuram area of Kallakurichi district is shocking and heartbreaking. I offer my deepest condolences to the families of the deceased and pray to God for the speedy recovery of those undergoing treatment," wrote the TVK chief on X.
He recalled the twin hooch tragedies where 17 people died after consuming illicit liquor in Villupuram and Chengalpattu districts.
Vijay said, "the fact that such an incident has occurred again shows the indifference of the government administration when it has not yet fully recovered from the tragedy of losing many lives due to the same incident last year."
The actor urged the Tamil Nadu government should take strict precautionary measures to prevent such incidents from happening in the future.
