She said that it is quite embarrassing for the governors to be told to do or not to do a thing. So, a time has come where they would be now told to discharge their duties as per the Constitution, she said.Justice Nagarthna’s comments came days after a three-judge bench headed by Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud expressed “serious concern” over the conduct of Tamil Nadu Governor RN Ravi for his refusal to reinduct DMK leader K Ponmudi as a minister in the state cabinet.Justice Nagarathna also spoke on her dissent on the demonetisation case.She said she had to dissent against the move by the central government as in 2016, when the decision was announced, the Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 notes comprised 86 per cent of the total currency notes in circulation, and 98 per cent of it came back after they were banned.In October 2016, the Indian government demonetised Rs 500 and Rs 1,000 banknotes, purportedly in a blow against the black money.”I thought it was a way of converting money into white money by this demonetisation because firstly, 86 per cent of the currency was demonetised and 98 per cent of the currency came back and became white money.All the uncounted money went back to the bank.
