Chennai, Oct 13 (UNI) Opposition parties in Tamil Nadu, including the Tamilaga Vettri Kazhagam (TVK), the AIADMK, and the BJP, have welcomed the Supreme Court's order for a probe by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the fatal stampede in Karur on September 27. The investigation will be monitored by a panel headed by a retired apex court judge.
