AIADMK workers today held special prayers for the speedy recovery of their party chief J Jayalalithaa, who is undergoing treatment at a hospital here since September 22, by lighting about one lakh lamps at temples in different parts of the state.
Prayers were held on behalf of AIADMK's 'J Jayalalithaa Peravai' forum and was attended by Ministers, MLAs and senior leaders.
About one lakh lamps were lit by the party workers in Murugan and Amman temples in different parts of the state, including Chennai, Madurai, Sivaganga, Nilgiris, Pudukottai, and Krishnagiri.
Lamps were lit in designs resembling 'Om' and 'Amma,' as Jayalalithaa is addressed by supporters, praying for her complete recovery and return home.

Jayalalithaa, 68, was admitted to Apollo Hospitals here on September 22 after she complained of fever and dehydration.
Hospital Chairman Pratap C Reddy had last week said the chief minister, who is getting whole body physiotherapy, is undergoing a "normal recuperation after being in bed for several weeks getting treated for illness" and it is she who would decide when to return home.
