Despite being lathi-charged by the police, Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam DMK president M. Karunanidhi-s supporters remained outside the Kauvery Hospital here and urged the hospital staff to update them about the leader-s health condition.

"For the past three days, we have been waiting here without food and water. We don-t want anything, give us our thalaiva back. Why has nothing been said on him yet? We want him back," a supporter of Karunanidhi told ANI.
