A stampede at a rally for a popular Indian actor and politician in the southern state of Tamil Nadu has k!lled at least 36 people
40 others were also injured, the state’s health minister said late Saturday.
Ma Subramanian told The Associated Press that the victims were de.ad by the time they were taken to a hospital and that the injured were stable.

The de.ad included eight children, Subramanian said.
The rally, which officials say was attended by tens of thousands of people, was being addressed by Vijay, one of Tamil Nadu’s most successful actors-turned-politician in the district of Karur.

Indian media reports, quoting local officials, said as Vijay spoke to the surging crowd, a group of his supporters and fans fell while trying to get close to his bus, causing the stampede.
“There was indiscipline” at the rally, Subramanian said, adding that an investigation had been ordered.

Hours after the accident, Vijay offered his condolences.
