J Jayalalithaa's niece Deepa Jayakumar, launching herself as a candidate for her political legacy, said today that a majority in Tamil Nadu's ruling AIADMK want her as their leader - not her aunt's long-time friend Sasikala Natarajan. "There isn't anyone else and I have proof," the 42-year-old told NDTV. But she saved a bigger announcement for the February 24 birth anniversary of the former Chief Minister, saying: "I want to make this landmark change in my life on a very special day."
