Batting for the expeditious release of all seven Rajiv Gandhi assassination case convicts, Pattali Makkal Katchi on Thursday urged the ruling AIADMK government in Tamil Nadu to remind the state Governor Banwarilal Purohit about the Cabinet recommendation pending with him favouring their release.

Expressing happiness over the Supreme Court days ago asking the state government to approach Purohit over this, the PMK, an ally of the ruling party, said the top court's views were an indication that the matter was headed towards a "happy end."
Seeking the early release of all the Rajiv case convicts, PMK founder S Ramadoss said, "The Governor should do his duty as per the Constitution without unnecessary delay. The Tamil Nadu government should remind him to do so."
