RIP: Kalimuthu

Former Speaker of the Tamil Nadu assembly K Kalimuthu passed away yesterday due to a heart attack. Kalimuthu, who was 64, was survived by four sons, and five daughters. He was admitted to Apollo Hospital 10 days ago for heart ailments. He has not been in good health for the past year or so, and had to be removed from the ADMK’s list of candidates for the last assembly election. Kalimuthu has been seen by many as the #2 in the ADMK after Jayalalitha and his demise should come as a serious jolt to the party.

Jayalalitha’s and Karunanidhi’s reaction to Kalimuthu’s death,

“Kalimuthu was in the forefront in fighting for the interests of the party and worked for the development of the Tamil language till his last breath.” – Jayalalitha

“He was a good friend, a good writer and orator,” – Karunanidhi
