DMK Chief Karunanidhi's wife visits Apollo, enquires on Jaya's health
Chennai: DMK patriarch M Karunanidhi's wife and Rajya Sabha MP Kanimozhi's mother, Rajathi Ammal, has visited Apollo Hospital to enquire about the health of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa.
Sources in both AIADMK and DMK confirmed that Rajathi Ammal visited the hospital on Thursday night and enquired about the health of Ms Jayalalithaa, who has been under treatment there since September 22.
Her visit comes days after DMK Treasurer M K Stalin, son of Karunanidhi, called on doctors at the hospital.
DMK sources said Rajathi Ammal took the concurrence of Mr Karunanidhi before she went to the hospital to enquire about the health of Jayalalithaa.
Her unannounced visit came to light only on Friday.
Meanwhile, former Tamil Nadu governor K Rosaiah today visited the hospital and enquired about the health of Jayalalitaa.
Mr Rosaiah, whose term as the state governor ended recently, said he prayed the almighty for the speedy recovery of Jayalalithaa.
Ever since Ms Jayalalithaa was hospitalised last month, the hospital has received a steady stream of VVIP visitors including Union Ministers and leaders of political parties besides the all-time presence of AIADMK leaders.
