Jayalalithaa sworn in as CM

AIADMK chief Jayalalithaa was on Monday (16.05.2011) sworn in as Tamil Nadu Chief Minister for the third time, along with 33 ministers, at a glittering function at the Madras University centenary auditorium here. This was the same venue where she took over as Chief Minister for the first time in 1991.

Jayalalithaa has retained the home and police portfolios.

Tamil Nadu Governor Surjit Singh Barnala administered the oath of office and secrecy. The 63-year-old Jayalalithaa and others took the oath in Tamil and in the name of god. This would be the largest-ever ministry in the state since Independence. Jayalalithaa will be retaining the home and police portfolios.

The DMK and the Congress both skipped the oath-taking ceremony for the new government. Both parties contested the election jointly, and were hammered, with the DMK managing only 22 seats.

The AIADMK leader had steered the alliance led by her party to a spectacular victory in the elections by winning 200 of the total 234 seats. Jayalalithaa's new ministry is a blend of experience and youth. Most of the ministers are making their maiden entry into the state Cabinet.

The swearing-in ce remony was attended by Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi, former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister
N. Chandrababu Naidu and CPI General Secretary A B Bardhan, among others.

!! Journey Through The Holy Week !!

---

The True Christian Spirit Easter reminds you of all those joyous celebrations. But they are not just all of Easter. They wait to greet you at the end of the Holy week. In fact, Easter is a long journey through various stages. All these are meant for readying a Christian's soul for the greatest feast at the end of the Holy Week on Easter Sunday And each stage bears a symbolic meaning with certain phase of the life of Christ. Let us start with the stage that lies at the gateway. It's the Ash Wednesday where the journey begins. The Ash opens the gate to the Lent, the Even the Holy week itself follows a journey of penance through Lent. Maundy Thursday The Thursday of the Holy Week is associated with the Last Supper. The day is known as Maundy Thursday, or, Holy Thursday. It is the day before crucifixion. On this day Jesus had his supper, his last course, with his disciples. In the words of St Matthew: ...Jesus took bread, and blessed, and broke it , and gave it to the disciples and said, "Take, eat; this is my body." And he took a cup, and when he had given thanks he gave it to them, saying," Drink of it, all of you; for this is my blood of covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins." HAPPY EASTER -ALBERT
