*Order*: TN Govt must sanction ₹30 lakh within 15 days.

*2. Death Sentence Commuted – Father Who Raped Minor Daughter Gets Life Till Death*
*Date*: 7 Apr 2026 | *Bench*: Justices N. Anand Venkatesh & K.K. Ramakrishnan, Madurai Bench
*Facts*: Man raped his 14-year-old daughter in 2023, leading to pregnancy. Trial court gave death penalty.
*HC Ruling*: Commuted to life imprisonment till natural death. No remission.

2. Trial judge was _“influenced by emotion, sentiment and the horror of the offence”_. Accused lacked proper legal aid.
*Quote*: _“To take a life in the name of justice is its gravest function; to spare it, when the law so permits, is its highest wisdom.”_

*Facts*: ‘Orderly system’ was abolished in 1979 but still exists.
*Direction*: DGP to file affidavit by 27 Apr 2026 to completely abolish it. _“Police personnel are trained for public service and not for attending to private needs of senior officers.”_
