Puducherry Lt Governor Kiran Bedi today said Jayalalithaa was a rare political personality who charted a distinct path of governance through her strong and able leadership.
Expressing her condolence over the demise of Jayalalithaa, Bedi in her letter to Tamil Nadu Government described the late Chief Minister as a "multi faceted personality".
Bedi said "the departed leader had always carved a niche for herself in all walks of life, be it as a student excelling in academics, be it as an artist, as a versatile actor and culminating in politics as a leader of the masses and elite", a release said.
Jayalalithaa had been a symbol of women empowerment and always had her heart for the cause of women. People of Puducherry "shared the sorrow of the loss along with the people of Tamil Nadu", she said.
