The Madras High Court on Thursday dismissed a petition to convert Veda Nilayam, the residence of former CM J Jayalalithaa into a memorial. This comes after former CM O Panneerselvam had started a signature campaign to turn Jayalalithaa's Poes Garden residence into a memorial. Notably, the petition had claimed that the houses of former CM Kamaraj and MG Ramachandran were also made memorials.
