TN Governor should defer swearing in of Sasikala: Soli Sorabjee

Noted jurist Soli Sorabjee today said Tamil Nadu Governor Vidyasagar Rao should defer the swearing in of AIADMK chief V K Sasikala and wait for the Supreme Court judgement in the disproportionate assets case against her.<br/><br/>Reacting to the current political developments in the state, he said it is well within the powers of the Governor not to swear her in immediately. He reasoned that it would complicate matters if the Supreme court upholds the lower court order convicting her in the case.<br/><br/>The former Attorney General, however, said it was not open to caretaker chief minister O Pannerselvam to withdraw his resignation which has already been accepted by the Governor.
