The message from the byelections is loud and clear. The people of the State have once again reiterated their faith in the AIADMK and have clearly indicated that they are solidly behind Ms. Jayalalitha.

The Centre has at last acted, though at the eleventh hour. The much-awaited extension of the ban on LTTE has become a reality, and the nation heaves a sigh of relief.
