The Supreme Court disposed a plea seeking release of all 7 convicts in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case and yet again put the onus on Tamil Nadu Governor Purohit. Stalin, who has released a statement has demanded instant release of all convicts and hit out at the governor accusing him of delaying the proceedings on purpose. Tamil Nadu Deputy CM OPS has also sought release of convicts asserting that the cabinet has passed a resolution on the same. Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi have both said that they have forgiven the convicts. Although Rahul said that he will let the law take its own course and respect their verdict.
