↑  Though Congress won the election, it refused to form the government as it did not like the Governor's veto power over the cabinet. The Governor of Madras, Lord Erskine, decided to form an interim provisional Government with non-members and opposition members of the Legislative Assembly. V. S. Srinivasa Sastri was first offered the Chief Ministership of the interim government but he refused to accept it. Eventually an interim Government was formed under Kurma Venkata Reddy Naidu on 1 April 1937. It lasted till July, when the Congress accepted Viceroy Linlithgow's assurance that the veto would not be abused and decided to form the government.

1 2 3  Pada 21 September 2001, sebuah pengadilan konstitusional lima hakim dari Pengadilan Tinggi Infia memajukan sebuah aturan bahwa "orang yang didakwa atas tindak kejahatan dan dihukum penjara selama periode tidak kurang dari dua tahun tak dapat diangkat menjadi Ketua Menteri dari sebuah Negara Bagian di bawah Pasal 164 (1) sampai dengan (4) dan tak dapat melanjutkan fungsi semacam itu". Sehinggam, pengadilan tersebut memutuskan bahwa "dalam pelantikan Ms. Jayalalithaa sebagai Ketua Menteri, terdapat pelanggaran jelas dari tujuan Konstitusional dan tindakan quo warranto harus dimajukan". Akibatnya, pelantikannya sebagai Ketua Menteri dianggap hampa dan tidak sah dengan efek retrospektif. Sehingga, secara teknis, ia tak menjadi Ketua Menteri dalam periode antara 14 Mei 2001 dan 21 September 2001 (The Hindu — SC unseats Jayalalithaa as CM Diarsipkan 2004-11-28 di Wayback Machine., Full text of the judgment from official Supreme Court site Diarsipkan 2006-06-27 di Wayback Machine.).
