The Madras High Court is deliberating on TVK General Secretary Aadhav Arjuna's petition to cancel an FIR filed against him for posts suggesting a potential "Gen Z revolution" following the Karur stampede that killed 41 people. The Chennai Cyber Crime Police charged him under multiple Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita sections, while his defense claims political motivation and misinterpretation of posts that were deleted within minutes of publishing.
