Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa who was admitted to the Apollo Hospital on Sunday after she suffered a cardiac arrest, is declared dead and the storm has only begun!
In what can be called as tumultuous times ahead for Tamil Nadu, the entire state is gripped by grief, mourning its Iron lady who breathed her last, aged 68.
While she was on a heart pump (ECMO) and the best cardiologists and pulmonologists were treating her, sadly, no amount of helped her recoup.
Needless to say, supporters have taken to streets expressing their angst while the civic order in the state could be at stake.
Twitter is also flooding with deep condolences and prayers, hoping ‘Selvi’ rests in peace.
