It isn't Tamil Nadu boss priest J Jayalalithaa alone who is the focal point of consideration at the city's Apollo Hospital. Some place on the second floor where the weak boss clergyman is being dealt with by a group of top specialists, another woman holds court nowadays with top authorities lining up for guidelines.
Resigned IAS officer, Sheela Balakrishnan, 62, is credited with running the state organization while the main priest is fighting her disease. "Indeed, even pastors are taking directions from her," pointed out a top authority who did not wish to be named.
"Jayalalithaa has certain trust in Sheela Balakrishnan, both for her capacities and disposition, which is the reason she has turned into the most essential individual in the state today. Nothing moves without her assent," he included.

Few in Tamil Nadu will go ahead record on how the organization is being keep running without Jayalalithaa who has been hospitalized for over 10 days. There has dependably been a component of mystery covering both the main pastor and the top-rung of her AIADMK party and nobody will welcome her fierceness by sharing points of interest.
Indeed, even her disease and the ebb and flow condition of her wellbeing have been the subject of theory. On Tuesday, the Madras high court requested the state government to advise the court about her wellbeing inside two days after a lobbyist recorded an appeal looking for clarity.
Top authorities going by the Apollo clinic say their visits are for twin purposes: To mind the main pastor's wellbeing and to likewise look for direction from the bespectacled Balakrishnan.
The 1976-clump IAS officer hailing from Thiruvananthapuram in Kerala is said to work from a room near that of Jayalalithaa. Another room on the same floor is involved by Sasikala, a long-lasting associate of the central priest.
Be that as it may, Balakrishnan is the individual whom top authorities, for example, boss secretary P Rama Mohan Rao and executive general of police TK Rajendran effectively search out. Balakrishnan resigned in 2014, however was designated as the CM's authentic consultant before long.

It is in her ability as Jayalalithaa's most-trusted counselor that Balakrishnan is making major decisions, insiders say. Persuasive pastors including O Panneerselvam, who turned into the main priest twice when Jayalalithaa needed to venture down as a result of legitimate inconveniences, assume negligible parts.
Despite the fact that no significant arrangement choices are being taken in Jayalalithaa's nonattendance, authorities say Balakrishnan is guaranteeing the organization runs easily, giving an impression of being on 'auto pilot'.
Orders managed from the clinic are being executed and directed by another IAS officer, Santha Sheela Nair, who sits in the main priest's office in the state secretariat.
"It is great that Tamil Nadu has a solid and productive administration to keep the force abandoning direction from the political authority," demanded Ganapati Ramachandran, VP of the South Indian Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
MG Devasahayam, a previous top administrator, called attention to that Balakrishnan, with over three many years of authoritative experience, has the obliged sharpness to run the state. She first got into Jayalalithaa's great books while serving in the central pastor's secretariat in 2002.
At the point when the DMK came to power, she was sidelined. In any case, she organized a rebound when Jayalalithaa raged back to control in 2011. Her bond with the central clergyman became further, and in 2012 when the main secretary's post fell empty, she even superseded her IAS-spouse R Balakrishnan to involve the top regulatory position.
