MGR wanted her to be a member of the Rajya Sabha because of her fluency in English. Indira Gandhi lauded Jayalalitha for the various speeches she made on issues including the one on internal security in Rajya Sabha. Jayalalithaa was made nominated and elected to that body in 1984 and retained her seat until 1989.

By engineering a rift between her and MGR, these members influenced MGR to stop her writing about her personal life in a Tamil magazine. Despite these machinations, she remained admired by the rank and file of the party. She was given key responsibilities, including in the implementation of the landmark noon-meals scheme when M.G.Ramachandran was the CM and this taught her lessons in welfare politics.

New Delhi , Feb. 7 (ANI): Taking a dig at Prime Minister Narendra Modi's reply to the Motion of Thanks on President's address in the Lok Sabha, the Congress on Tuesday said the former is addicted to one-liners, acronyms and jumlas. "I am very sorry to hear this that no less than the Prime Minister of the world's second largest democracy and second most populous nation is addicted to one-liners, acronyms and jumlas. Escalating his attack on the Prime Minister, Singhvi said the former is frustrated and frightened especially after demonetisation.
By all accounts, Jayalalithaa was once very fond of her niece Deepa. She was in fact born at "Veda Nilayam" in Poes Garden, the home of Jayalalithaa, in 1974 when her brother and family were living with her. "My aunt was the one who named me," smiles Deepa. "I was born a day before Deepavali and so she named me Deepa."
The AIADMK returned to power in 2001, although Jayalalithaa was personally disbarred from contesting due to the corruption cases. Within a few months of her taking oath as chief minister, in September 2001, she was disqualified from holding office, and forced to cede the chair to loyalist O. Panneerselvam. Upon her acquittal six months later, Jayalalithaa returned as chief minister to complete her term. Noted for its ruthlessness to political opponents, many of whom were arrested in midnight raids, her government grew unpopular. Another period (2006–11) in the opposition followed, before Jayalalithaa was sworn in as chief minister for the fourth time after the AIADMK swept the 2011 assembly election. Her government received attention for its extensive social-welfare agenda, which included several subsidised "Amma"-branded goods such as canteens(Amma Unavagam), bottled water and salt. Three years into her tenure, she was convicted in a disproportionate-assets case, rendering her disqualified to hold office. She returned as chief minister after being acquitted in May 2015. In the 2016 assembly election, she became the first Tamil Nadu chief minister since MGR in 1984 to be voted back into office.

Sandhya had acted in the 1964 Tamil film Karnan, produced and directed by Kannada film-maker B. R. Panthulu. Jayalalithaa accompanied her mother to a party related to the film and was spotted by Panthulu, who then decided to cast her opposite Kalyankumar in the Kannada movie Chinnada Gombe. He promised to finish all shooting within two months in order not to interfere with her education. Since Jayalalitha would be studying for her PUC in two months' time, Sandhya had declined the offer initially. Sandhya agreed when that promise was made and Jayalalithaa started acting and she was paid ₹3,000 (equivalent to ₹110,000 or US$1,700 in 2016). Panthulu kept his promise and completed shooting in six weeks. Jayalalithaa had forgotten all about films after acting in her Kannada debut film and had got ready to attend classes at Stella Maris as she had an ambition to be a lawyer. But the Kannada debut film became a blockbuster in 1964 and she became a well-known face. Meanwhile, Jayalalithaa continued acting in Parthasarathy's plays. She played the leading role in plays such as Malathi, The Whole Truth, and the dance drama Kaveri Thanda Kalaiselvi between 1960 and 1966. She made her debut as the lead actress in Kannada films while still in school, age 15, in Chinnada Gombe .

Chinnappa Thevar was on the lookout for a regular heroine for his production after he had fight with the actress Savithri after the release of Vetaikkaran, and he signed Jayalalitha on in 1965. She became a regular heroine for production house Devar films from 1966.
Subsequently, in March 2003, Jayalalithaa assumed the position of Chief Minister once more, having been acquitted of some charges by the Madras High Court. This cleared the way for her to contest a mid-term poll to the Andipatti constituency, after the sitting MLA for the seat, gave up his membership, which she won by a handsome margin. India's first company of female police commandos was set up in Tamil Nadu in 2003. They underwent the same training as their male counterparts, covering the handling of weapons, detection and disposal of bombs, driving, horseriding, and adventure sports.

US think-tanks to Trump: Scare Pak to stop it from supporting terror The US should scare Pakistan by keeping the option open for declaring it as a state sponsor of terrorism.

Sasikala.With the changed circumstances, she seemed to have shifted from her position as stated in an interview she gave to The Hindu some weeks ago, soon after former Chief Minister Jayalalithaa had the tracheostomy. “It was in 2002, when I met her after many years there was a big difference between the previous attempts and that time when I met her. I had been trying for many years to meet her and revive the relationship. But every time she knew that I was there to meet her, she immediately met me. At one point of time I stopped even trying to meet her, as I wasn’t even allowed to enter the road,” she said. ‘Things soured after 96’“It was after 1996 things began to go wrong. I had only her landline number because she had insisted that we call her on the landline. She tried to talk on landline,” Ms. Deepa said. Even on Saturday, this part of the story was pretty constant. Ms. Deepa said she and her brother Deepak went to see her once in 2004, and were even allowed inside, but could not meet her. “We were told that she was resting.” On Saturday, she said that she was quite shocked to see him perform the last rites along with her aunt’s confidante, V.K. Sasikala. She said she tried everything to meet Jayalalithaa. “I have written hundreds of letters, but they did not reach her. She knew what was happening in our lives till 2004.

Even my mother had been trying to meet her.”Key divergence The key divergence in her position is when she answers the question: Would you be interested in being Jayalalithaa's political heir?
