This is her second visit to the national capital since she came to power.

During her June 14 meeting with the Prime Minister, Dr Manmohan Singh, Ms Jayalalithaa had placed a demand for a special assistance of Rs one lakh crore even as she had been charging the previous DMK regime with pushing the state into a ‘debt-trap’.
