PMK founder S. Ramadoss rejected chief minister J. Jayalalithaa’s explanation that she did not have the powers to commute the death sentence of the three convicts in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case after the trio’s mercy plea was rejected by the President.
PMK founder S. Ramadoss said Criticising Ms Jayalalithaa’s stand, “If she had the will, the lives of three persons can be saved.” While the whole state was waiting for the CM to save the three persons, Ms Jayalalithaa has shrugged off responsibility. Refusing to buy the home ministry’s directive of 1991, which Ms Jayalalithaa quoted in the Assembly, Dr Ramadoss said the Constitution was “superior in authority” to a home ministry directive. He also explained that Article 161 did not take away the power from the Governor of a state to consider and decide an appeal even after the President’s decision.
