| J Jayalalithaa's supporters, who had broken into violence Chennai's Apollo hospital a short while ago, calmed down as the hospital said in a statement this evening that the Tamil Nadu chief minister continues to be on life support and is being continuously monitored by their doctors who have been joined by experts from Delhi's All India Institute of Medical Sciences or AIIMS.
The hospital said reports to the contrary on some TV channels were "baseless and false."
At the office of her AIADMK, a loud cheer went up as a party flag that was being flown at half mast, was raised again. All the party's lawmakers and ministers are there, holding a meeting.
Less than hour before, hundreds of supporters, wailing and grieving, threw stones at the police and broke down barricades trying to enter the hospital, where the chief minister is in the Intensive Care Unit after she had a cardiac arrest last evening.
"The situation is extremely grave, but I can confirm that everything possible is being done to give her the best chance of surviving this shocking event," said British specialist Dr Richard Beale about Ms Jayalalithaa's this afternoon.
Dr Beale, who has been assisting doctors at Apollo Hospital in treating Ms Jayalalithaa since she was admitted in September, also said in his statement that "unfortunately, and in spite of the progress she had made, her underlying health conditions inevitably meant that the risk of further problems always remained."
