Centre asked to pass an ordinance in jallikattu case

Posted on: 14/Jan/2016 10:18:32 AM
The Centre has told Tamil Nadu that it had a constitutional power to promulgate the ordinance passed by the Supreme Court about Jallikattu. 

A Union minister has said, If Tamil Nadu gets an ordinance promulgated, the Centre would back it. Both the AIADMK and the DMK have asked the Centre to promulgate the ordinance to hold the traditional sport this year. Responding to questions on this, the minister said, The Centre cannot intervene at this juncture because the SC has only granted an interim stay and not given a final order on the issue. At the same time, the state government can promulgate an ordinance as per the Constitution... State government has power under the Constitution as entry 28 of the state list empowers states to promulgate ordinance on fairs and markets. As Jallikattu can be categorized as a fair, the state can issue an ordinance.
