The women went to such an extent that she moved the court in seek to unearth the mortal remains of Jayalalithaa and cremate it as per the rituals and customs of Iyengar community to which she belonged to.
On the same claims, the advocate general said it’s all her imagination and the girl is trying to harm the image of late leader.
The petitioner presented manipulations that she was raised by Sailaja, the younger sister of Jayalalithaa in Bengaluru.
And according to her manipulations Sailaja was disowned by Jayalalithaa’s family as she was born after the death of Jayalalitha’s father, Jayaram.
Further Narayan added that she has not yet submitted any proofs or documents that will prove that she was the daughter of the former chief minister. And she is making all false allegations against the leader which is also a defamation case.
