Chennai: As rumors swirl around Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa's death, popular south Indian actor Gautami Tadimalla has written to prime minister Narendra Modi calling his attention to the "the sheer volume of unanswered questions” over the CM's hospitalization, recovery and sudden death.
"There has been a near total blanketing of information regarding these matters," she wrote in her blog on Thursday.
Jayalalithaa died on Monday evening after suffering cardiac arrest.
The Apollo Hospital had turned into a virtual fortress for 75 days since Jayalalithaa was admitted with heavy police deployment. Very few people had access to Jayalalithaa and even national-level political leaders and union ministers were not allowed to meet her in person.
"Nobody had been allowed access to her and many dignitaries who visited her with deep concern were denied an opportunity to convey their wishes in person. Why this secrecy and isolation of a beloved public leader and the head of the Tamil Nadu government?” the actor sought to know.
She concluded her post by saying that she had complete confidence in the PM and that he would to uphold the rights of every Indian.
