Chennai, Oct 20 (IBNS) : The health condition of Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa has reportedly witnessed some improvement though she remains under respiratory support and close observation at the Apollo Hospital, The Hindu said.

The newspaper report said a team of specialists continues to monitor her closely and taking all measures to  make the zone sterile, and prevent further infection.

Jayalalithaa was admitted to the hospital on September 22.

Experts from Singapore continued to work with those in Apollo on providing passive physiotherapy for the Chief Minister.
