The Election Commission told the Supreme Court Monday that it can allot a common symbol of "pressure cooker" to an individual but not to an unregistered group led by former AIADMK leader TTV Dhinakaran and VK Sasikala in Tamil Nadu.

VK Sasikala's hopes of getting out of jail and taking charge of the AIADMK crashed on Wednesday when the Supreme Court rejected an appeal against her conviction that has landed her in jail since February this year.

A petition filed by AIADMK's VK Sasikala -- seeking review of her 4-year-jail term following conviction in a corruption case -- was deferred today after a judge who was to hear it, recused.

The Karnataka government moved the Supreme Court on Tuesday seeking a review of its verdict that did not rule on Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa's role in the disproportionate assets case. The state argued that it would be impossible to recover the 100 crore penalty imposed by the court unless she too was held guilty.

AIADMK General Secretary VK Sasikala, serving a jail term after her conviction in a disproportionate assets case, will have to serve 13 more months in prison if she fails to pay a fine of Rs 10 crore imposed by the Supreme Court. "Sasikala Natarajan will have to pay Rs 10 crore and if she fails to pay the punitive amount imposed by the Supreme Cour...

The jail had served her two rotis, one rag...
