It wasn't a normal day for the people in Chennai. In a well attended ceremony at the Centenary Auditorium of the University of Madras, AIADMK supremo J Jayalalithaa took oath as the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu for the fifth time. The ceremony marked her return to the Chief Minister's chair, about a fortnight after the Karnataka High Court acquitted her and three others of corruption charges in the disproportionate assets case.
