Given below are the contents (slightly edited) of some recent Facebook posts and shares of mine about the recently departed (Late) former chief minister of Tamil Nadu, Smt. Jayalalithaa

https://www.facebook.com/narendramodi/posts/10157939077195165, [Shri Narendra Modi, Hon'ble PM of India: Deeply saddened at the passing away of Selvi Jayalalithaa. Her demise has left a huge void in Indian politics.

Jayalalithaa ji’s connect with citizens, concern for welfare of the poor, the women & marginalized will always be a source of inspiration.

My thoughts and prayers are with the people of Tamil Nadu in this hour of grief. May the Almighty grant them the strength to bear this irreparable loss with courage and fortitude.

I will always cherish the innumerable occasions when I had the opportunity to interact with Jayalalithaa ji. May her soul rest in peace.]

[Ravi:] In Tamil in the Tamil Nadu assembly, I guess. My Tamil is not good enough to translate it. But it seems she is saying that she is willing to sacrifice herself for her children (people of the state of Tamil Nadu).

[Ravi:] Around 7 mins, BBC Hard Talk interview. This shows Jayalalithaa's 'iron lady' side, I think. She hammers back at whatever tough questions Karan Thapar asks her. Quite some Tamilan lady and leader, I must say.
