A large number of AIADMK workers gathered outside Apollo Hospital here on Saturday after speculations raged about the health condition of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa.

The atmosphere turned tense after the hospital brought in a specialist, Dr Richard John Beale, from London on Friday to treat the chief minister. Despite Dr Beale issuing a statement that Jayalalithaa was provided the best medical care, the party workers remained visibly impatient.

On Saturday night, Acting Governor Ch Vidyasagar Rao visited the chief minister in the ward and was happy to note that the 68-year-old leader is recovering well.

Rao was briefed by the hospital authorities, including chairman Dr Pratap C Reddy, on the treatment and care being given to Jayalalithaa.

On Thursday night, hospital chief operating officer Subbiah Viswanathan issued a bulletin, saying Jayalalithaa was advised to stay for a few more days for recuperative treatment.

AIADMK spokesperson Panruti Ramachandran said Jayalalithaa was recovering well and hoped for an early discharge. Ramachandran also slammed the demand of the Opposition party leaders, including DMK chief M Karunanidhi, to release photographs of Jayalalithaa, saying it is not necessary.A large number of AIADMK workers gathered outside Apollo Hospital here on Saturday after speculations raged about the health condition of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa.
