Govt mulls options on Rajiv Gandhi killers under shadow of Afzal Guru

Cabinet committee on political affairs will discuss ways to deal with Tamil Nadu assembly's unanimous resolution seeking commutation of death sentence of the three convicted for plotting Rajiv Gandhi's assassination.

The discussion comes in the backdrop of the eight-week deadline Madras high court set on August 30 for the Centre and the state government to explain the inordinate delay in disposing of the clemency petition of the three convicts. What would have been a tough call, in view of resistance to the hanging of the LTTE activists, has been complicated by similar demand from Kashmir Valley to reprieve Afzal Guru who has been given death sentence for the 2001 terror attack on Parliament.

The TN assembly had tossed the fraught issue into Centre's lap after intense competition between the AIADMK and the DMK to appease the clamour that Santhan, Murugan and Perarivalan not be sent to the gallows.

The Centre's decision will not only impact Tamil Nadu politics where both the DMK and AIADMK have accused each other of not doing enough to save the LTTE activists, but will also have a bearing on the call it may take on Afzal Guru.
