Is there a better way?

NEW DELHI: Tamil Nadu Government on Thursday told the Supreme Court that if at all the Sankararaman murder case involving Kanchi Shankaracharyas be transferred outside the state it should be tried in Pondicherry.

The plea came before the Court reserved its verdict on the Sankaracharya's petition for transfer of the case outside Tamil Nadu.

However, the state government's stand was opposed by senior advocate, Fali S Nariman, who appeared for the Seer before a Bench comprising Chief Justice R C Lahoti and Justice G P Mathur.

He said the case should be shifted to nearby district of Chittore in Andhra Pradesh.
