Tamil Nadu Chief Minister MK Stalin hailed the recent Supreme Court judgment against the state’s Governor as “historic.” The ruling came after Governor Banwarilal Purohit declined to accept the recommendation of the state cabinet to release seven life convicts. The court’s decision to uphold the constitutional principle that the Governor must act on the aid and advice of the council of ministers was praised by Chief Minister Stalin. The Chief Minister’s statement emphasized the importance of upholding democratic norms and respecting the decisions of the elected government. The judgment marks a significant moment in the ongoing power struggle between the state government and the Governor’s office. This development underscores the need for clarity on the respective roles and responsibilities of the Governor and the Chief Minister within the framework of the Indian constitution. The ruling is expected to have far-reaching implications for the relationship between state governments and Governors across the country. The Supreme Court’s intervention in this matter has set a precedent for future disputes between state authorities and the Governor’s office. The decision has been widely welcomed by political observers and legal experts for reaffirming the principles of democracy and constitutional governance. The Chief Minister’s strong endorsement of the court’s ruling further highlights the significance of this verdict in the context of state politics.
