Bangalore: Bangalore Police Commissioner MN Reddi has denied reports of former Tamil Nadu chief minister and AIADMK chief J Jayalalithaa's ill health. Speaking to reporters, Reddi said, "We usually write to a couple of government hospitals routinely when there is a Z+ security person in city, to keep ward ready as a precaution. We have written in the same way to two hospitals. Public is requested not to pay heed to any such rumours of her ill health."
The Police Commissioner also said that the medical arrangements for Jayalalithaa had been made. He said, "Practice to write to the government hospitals to keep the ward ready with all equipment is a part of the security protocol. It does not mean that Jayalalithaa is unwell."
There was a rumour that Jayalalithaa is unwell and has to be shifted to a hospital soon.
Jayalalithaa has been lodged at the Bangalore Central Prison after being convicted and sentenced to four years' simple imprisonment in an 18-year-old disproportionate assets case on September 26.
The Karnataka High Court on Monday adjourned her bail plea and she has to stay n jail till October 6.
