Tamil Nadu Chief Minister K. Karunanidhi was Friday hospitalised after he complained of acute neck pain.

The DMK leader is 83 years old.

'There was some pain in his neck and keeping his age in mind no chances were taken. He is not in any danger and may be discharged after a day of observation," an aide in the chief minister's office said.
