Late chief minister J. Jayalalithaa’s birth anniversary is on February 24 but AIADMK party cadres got up local celebrations on Monday as suggested by the party’s leaders.
Mylapore’s AIADMK cadres created spots at some street corners where framed photos of Jayalalithaa, with garlands adorning it were set up.
On Bhemmanna Street located off Dr Ranga Road, Mylapore a group of AIADMK party workers joined hands to erected a small podium with a decorated photograph of Jayalalithaa on it. A bust of MGR located here was also decorated.
A music system relayed evergreen Tamil film songs from films which starred Jayalalithaa and M G Ramachandran.
People who passed by could pay homage with flowers placed on the podium.
