Maha speaker issues notices to 40 Shiv Sena MLAs, Uddhav says ’will seek justice

Live Mint  

Maharashtra's partisan politics landscape is plagued with rebels, party splits and sudden change of governance. Within a span of one year two major parties Shiv Sena and Nationalist Congress Party in Maharashtra saw the party get split into two, owing to disagreement with leadership. While the Pawar versus Pawar battle has caught attention of the masses, an older split in Shiv Sena has sought limelight again when Maharashtra Legislative Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar on Saturday said notices have been issued to 40 MLAs of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde-led Shiv Sena and 14 of the Uddhav Thackeray faction, seeking their replies on disqualification petitions against them. "Notice seeking replies on disqualification issued to 40 MLA of Eknath Shinde-Shiv Sena faction, 14 of Uddhav Thackeray faction," Narwekar told news agency PTI. The Speaker of the Legislative Assembly should take decision within that scope and if its decision is taken outside that scope, we will seek justice from the SC.” Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray started a two-day tour of Maharashtra's Vidarbha region on Sunday to interact with his party workers and boost their morale ahead of the Lok Sabha and state Assembly polls due next year, a party leader said.
