The Tamilnadu Government is going to release the killers of late P.M. Rajiv Gandhi consequent on commutation of death sentence to life imprisonment. This appears just and proper as the killers hvae already spent very ong period in jail with constant fear of handgman's noose. It is surprising that Congress leaders including Rahul Gandhi are so uncomfortable with Tamilnadu's government's decision. After all, the modern jurisprudence is not based on revenge.

Not really surprising that Rahul Gandhi is against freeing the criminals as they did kill his father in a horrible manner! Also, this may raise several questions against the judicial system in general, as their plea for mercy was lying pending with the President for more than 11 years! :blink: If the killers of a PM of the second largest democracy are let off free, it does raise many fearful questions in the minds of common people!
Rahul Gandhi's fathr was killed and he wants revenge by ensuring that killers must be hanged till death even though they have suffered more than enough punishment by way of prolonged imprisonment under constant fear of hangman's noose. Revenge is not object of modern jurisprudence. we cannot find fault with T.N. C.M.'s action to release the killers. There should be no fearful questions in peoples' minds as the culprits had already suffereed enough and the apex court has commuted the death sentence after considering all aspects.
The entire scenario passes a completely wrong message to the people. This may even lead to many hardened criminals thinking they can get off with heinous crimes and many have indeed been let off of after few years' imprisonment! It does not at all sound fair and just!
I garee...And it is not just Rajeev Gandhi but other security personnel as well who were killed and naturally those families are livid with this judgment. I personally feel that they should be given a life sentence no matter what they had to suffer, since they have killed people without any feeling or remorse..
What is more upseting is that the plea for mercy was pending with the President's office for more than 11 years, that plus other legal technicalities is the reason why these people are being allowed to walk off! Is there any justice anyone can see in this?? :blink: :blink:
Under Sonia run UPA anything and everything is possible ! I dont think that we have ever had such a scam filled governance in the history of our country after independence....The bureaucracy and courts too function accordingly !
Jayalalitha has now national ambition as in her party's manifesto she said she would increase income tax exemption limit to 5 lacs.It is a political season and Jaya hold the buzzer first, as karuna fails to act to please local people, some years back Priyanka Gandhi began this politics by visiting that cell where convicts are there.
Season or no season. Politician waits for an opportunity that is utilized for his own selfish motives. And this is a universal phenomenon. Jayalalita is another politician.
Not only IT exemption, she promised Mixies, Grinders, Color TVs etc etc. She promised a Rama Rajya. Lert's see how far her mixies and grinders will make her the PM.
Jai Lalitha has no base outside Tamilnadu. She can however be P.M. of a coalition government if Congress and BJP both do not get adequate numbers.
It's not only Jayalalita, it's the case with all the regional parties who are dreaming of the Big Chair. And in this process they are setting aside their strength and hold outside their own states.

This is correct. In case of BJP and congress both being unable to get good numbers, jai lalitha or Mulayam singh or some one else decided by coalition partners may be P.M. Jay lalitha has a chance but no certainty.

Yes. Nothing is certain at this stage. Even the concerned parties who are pretending that they would win from outside, they roo are uncertain.

That is because she calls the shots everywhere and no one dare oppose her. we are only a few steps short of being a banana country in truth! :blink: :blink:
Honorable Supreme Court stayed the release proceeding of former PM killers and it seems it is safeguarding interests of common masses as the whole matter is coiled between politics of political parties.
Yes the Apex court has stayed the order. It has to be seen whether this stay is going to safeguard the interests of the common man or not.
They have been awarded with 19 yrs of life imprisonment, and they have completed so they can be released,
It sets a bad example. Every law offender will commit crimes with a view one day or other they will be pardoned. Only those who behave well during the jail tenure can be considered for a release. But it again depends upon the gravity of crime.
