National anthem cut short, insulted at Jayalalithaa's swearing-in ceremony
Chennai, May 23: Constitutional rules were violated in Tamil Nadu Chief Minister Jayalalithaa's swearing-in ceremony on Saturday as the National Anthem which was played in the ceremony was cut short by 20 seconds. The swearing-in ceremony of AIADMK general secretary J.Jayalalithaa as chief minister and her council of ministers here on Saturday caused a controversy after a very short version of the national anthem was played on the occasion.
Before the swearing-in ceremony, it was announced that the national anthem would be played followed by Tamizh Thai Vazhthu (Invocation to Mother Tamil).
To the surprise of many just two lines of the national anthem -- the first line and the last line -- were played and it was followed by Tamizh Thai Vazhthu.
