Kayadu Lohar’s Response
In her post, Kayadu confirmed that the circulating statement was not from her. She stated, “The account sharing posts under my name is fake. I have no association with it, and the information provided is not mine. I am deeply saddened by the devastating incident at the Karur rally, and my heartfelt sympathies are with the families who have experienced loss.”
Further clarifying her position, she expressed, “I want to emphasize that I don’t have any personal connections in Karur, and the narrative being spread in my name is false. Please do not propagate or trust this misinformation.”
The Fake Post Content
The misleading account posted an emotional message purportedly from Kayadu, stating that she lost a close friend during the rally and criticized Vijay for the tragedy. The post read, “My deepest condolences to the families of those who lost their lives. I lost one of my closest friends at the Karur rally. All for TVK’s selfish politics.”
