She was inducted into Jayalalithaa ministry as Minister of Tourism in 2011. However, in February 2013, she was sacked from the Cabinet, possibly due to underperformance, only to be reinducted as Minister of Handlooms and Textiles in May 2014 in yet another reshuffle.
Indira lost in the elections of 2016 despite her party retaining power. Her constituency was won by M. K. Mohan. She was one among the incumbent 13 ADMK ministers who lost the 2016 polls.[2][3]
