B'cause,Governer is having no discretion on his own, rather to abide by the advise of the Governemnt,which could be influenced by the politicalweight.As such the intention of the justice delivery system may be given a go-bye.

The basis for judicial review should be several namely period spent in prison, nature of crime, age as well as demeanor of the convict in prison and of course the social impact.

Not at all.The purpose of the provision will be defeated if judicial review is allowed in clemency cases.Clemency is granted only when the Highest court has pronounced it's judgement.Again re-inventing the wheel will be a non-sense act.

definitely, it is happen in our judiciary if trial court commit/leave any flaw in the judgement than higher court has to review the same. In this case it must be open judicial review.
