Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa was today convicted in a Rs 66 crore disproportionate assets case by a Bangalore court. Jayalalithaa, 66, will most likely have to resign as Chief Minister of the state. She has been convicted along with three close aides, including Sasikala Natarajan, who lives with her.
- Even though justice is delayed, it's not denied. They were accusing the DMK of filing false charges against Jayalalithaa. Now, we stand vindicated.
TKS Elangovan, DMK leader
- I feel vindicated... she cannot recover from this loss of credibility.
Subramanian Swamy, BJP leader
- It is a confirmation that everyone is equal before the law. Certainly the verdict will have implications on the politics in Tamil Nadu.
Nalin Kohli, BJP leader
