Jaya photo in ministers' pocket, but trademark green missing

August 21, 2017 19:02

All AIADMK ministers including Chief Minister Palaniswami and his deputy Panneerselvam today continued the tradition of keeping Jayalalithaa's photo in their shirt pocket during the swearing-in though the signature green colour of her reign was missing from the ceremony.

The colour was distinct during late Chief Minister Jayalalithaa's swearing in ceremonies, with the stage backdrop and her attire in green.

Today's cermony, carried out post merger of the factions led by Palaniswami and Panneerselvam, was bereft of any lavish decoration.

All the ministers, including Palaniswami and Panneerselvam, had photographs of Jayalalithaa in their shirt pockets, a usual practice by the party men who refer to the late leader as 'Amma'.
