Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalitha is slowly feeling her way around her government has been functioning in her absence on two main issues -- law and order and the financial health of the state exchequer.

Since she resumed responsibility as CM, she has spoken twice to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and also to Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on the AIADMK's strategey over the GST and the Land Acquisition Bill.


After the bypolls on June 27, Jayalalithaa plans to visit New Delhi in time for the monsoon session of Parliament, which would begin in July. 


The CM has been facing multiple health issues and has to often go in for medical tests, but to her credit has always remained cheerful. Except may be for that short stint in jail, which sources say, has been understandably traumatic for her.
