Letter Published in The National UAE on 1  Oct 14Jayalalithaa case lesson for corrupt

I was happy to know that the Tamil Nadu chief minister J Jayalalithaa has finally been arrested (Tamil Nadu chief minister jailed for corruption, September 28). Citizens of India were tired as this case dragged on for more than 18 years. Naturally, this verdict was not palatable to her supporters; nevertheless it marked a milestone in Indian politics. It showed that the high and mighty are not above the law, contrary to what many Indians think. It’s a warning for other politicians indulging in unfair practices.
