Hello
Shinde, with 12 of the 19 Lok Sabha members from Shiv Sena by his side, had named Shewale as the leader of the party in the Lok Sabha and Bhawana Gawale as the chief whip. The Speaker had approved these names.
The plea said against the background of proceedings before the apex court, the ECI was requested not to proceed in the matter.
Running coalitions is a tough challenge, but the task becomes complicated if the chief minister is the leader of the minor group, and constantly looks up to the larger group.
The Uddhav Thackeray-led MVA government announced the renaming of Aurangabad in central Maharashtra as `Sambhajinagar' in its last cabinet meeting on June 29, hours before Thackeray resigned.
He said the Sena is announcing support for Murmu without any pressure.
The Thackeray faction has been filing several pleas in the top court after the rebel Sena MLAs led by Eknath Shinde formed a coalition with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to form the government in the state.
A vacation bench of Justices Indira Banerjee and JK Maheshwari said it will be listed before an appropriate bench on July 11.
As per a statement issued by the Shiv Sena, Thackeray told the Sena district presidents to stay together if they want to put up a fight.
Senior advocate A M Singhvi, appearing for the Thackeray group, said that the speaker has no jurisdiction to recognise whips.
Rahul Narvekar of the BJP was on Sunday elected Speaker of the Maharashtra Assembly during the first day of its special session.
