The Congress has slammed the government for creating what it calls 'a situation' in court to get the Rajiv Gandhi case convict AG Perarivalan released. They say these are the BJP's "petty and cheap politics". "A terrorist is a terrorist and should be treated as one," is what they said. The party said they were pained by the Supreme Court verdict ordering the release. At the same time, the DMK, the ally of the Congress continues to celebrate the release - a sore point between the two parties in the past. On the show we ask, should convicted terrorists be spared the death penalty?
