Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa passed away on Monday night after a 75-day battle for life at the Apollo Hospital in Chennai, bringing to an end an eventful journey of the film star-turned-politician who straddled public life in the southern state for over three decades. Draped in the Tricolour, the body of the AIADMK leader was brought to the Rajaji Hall where teary-eyed people paid homage to the six-time chief minister. She will be cremated at the Marina beach.
