Mumbai, Feb 17 (PTI) Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, who heads a faction of the Shiv Sena, on Friday said his party believes in judiciary and expects that the Supreme Court will give its verdict in the case related to the June 2022 Maharashtra political crisis based on merit.
Sanjay Raut, a leader of Shiv Sena (UBT), however asserted that the party led by Uddhav Thackeray is the “real” Shiv Sena and truth will prevail when the apex court hears the case on February 21.
The Supreme Court on Friday refused to refer pleas related to the June 2022 Maharashtra political crisis triggered by the Shiv Sena’s division to a seven-judge bench for reconsideration of the 2016 Nabam Rebia judgement. The 2016 judgment deals with powers of assembly speakers to decide on disqualification pleas.
