குடியரசுத் தலைவருக்கு வேண்டுகோள்!
தாமரை – கவிஞர்
அன்புள்ள செய்தி ஆசிரியர் / ஊடக நண்பர்கள் / தோழர்கள்,
வணக்கம். மூன்று தமிழர்களின் உயிர்கள் தூக்குக் கயிற்றின் கீழ் ஊசலாடிக் கொண்டிருக்கும் இவ்வேளையில் இந்தியாவெங்கும் – குறிப்பாக தமிழகத்தில் – மரண தண்டனைக்கு எதிராகப் பரவலான குரல்கள் எழுந்து கொண்டிருக்கின்றன. காந்தி தேசத்தில் இருந்து மரண தண்டனையை ஒழித்தாக வேண்டும் என்பதே படைப்பாளிகள் பலரின் குரலாக உள்ளது. அத்தகையவர்களின் குரல்களை ஒருங்கிணைத்து , தூக்குக் கயிற்றின் கீழ் துடிக்கும் இந்த மூன்று தமிழர்களின் உயிரையும் காக்குமாறு குடியரசுத் தலைவருக்கு வேண்டுகோள் வைத்துள்ளோம்.
உலகளாவிய படைப்பாளிகள் / மனித உரிமைப் போராளிகள் ஆகியோரின் குரலை செவி மடுக்குமாறு இந்தியாவின் பிரதமர் மற்றும் உள்துறை அமைச்சர் ஆகியோரையும் வேண்டுகிறோம். படைப்பாளிகளின் இந்தக் கூட்டறிக்கையை உங்கள் ஏட்டில் / தொலைக்காட்சியில் / இணையத்தில் வெளியிடுமாறு படைப்பாளிகள் சார்பில் அன்புடன் வேண்டிக் கொள்கிறேன்.
தாமரை. கவிஞர்.

To
Her Excellency The President of India,
New Delhi.
Respected Madam,
Sub: To save the lives of the Three Tamils and for the Abolition of Death Penalty in India.We, on behalf of the Artists’ Movement Against Death Penalty, earnestly appeal to your Excellency to reconsider your decision to reject the mercy petitions of Perarivalan, Santhan and Murugan, convicted and sentenced to death in the Rajiv Gandhi assassination case, and order the commutation of the death sentence on them.
We appeal to your Excellency to invoke your powers under Article 72 of the Constitution to save the lives of these three human beings.Please let us bring to your kind notice the Resolution moved by the Honorable Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu and adopted unanimously by the Tamilnadu Assembly praying for the commutation of death sentence on the said three.
Writers, Journalists, Artists, Theatre Artists, Performers, Media Personalities, Film and TV personalities and Activists have unitedly and wholeheartedly joined us. Renowned International and National Writers (to name a few) : Noam Chomsky (U.S) , Maha Swetha Devi (Bengal), Charlolote Hills O’ Neil (Tanzania), Orithaaz ( South Africa) and Sara Sachs Eldridge (U.K) have expressed their solidarity with us in this issue.We all sincerely believe that death penalty should be totally abolished in India, the land of Buddha and Gandhi, as has been done in most of the countries in the world. Total banishment of capital punishment from the surface of the earth is bound to take mankind one big step further in the path of progress.
