The 88-year-old leader was admitted to a private hospital in Chennai on Monday night and was later discharged after some "clinical tests" were conducted, hospital sources said.
The sources said the former chief minister came for a check-up relating to urinary tract infection. Karunanidhi was taken to the hospital for a "routine check-up", DMK sources had said earlier but did not elaborate.
