J Jayalalitha was sworn in again on Saturday as chief minister of Tamil Nadu, India, after her court sentence for corruption was overturned by an appeal court.
Crowds cheered "Amma is back" as she arrived at the University of Madras for the swearing in ceremony, which was attended by 28 of her cabinet ministers.
Ms Jayalalitha was sentenced to four years in prison last year charged with accumulating more than $10 m in unaccounted wealth.
Her colleague and party loyalist, O Panneerselvam was sworn in as chief minister in her absence, and resigned on Friday paving the way for her return.
