New Delhi: A five-judge constitution bench of the Supreme Court will pronounce its verdict later today on the petitions over political events in Maharashtra which led to the collapse of the Uddhav Thackeray government after his party leader Eknath Shinde broke away and formed a government with the Bharatiya Janata Party’s support.
The verdict by Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud and Justices M.R. Shah, Krishna Murari, Hima Kohli and P.S. Narasimha will determine who, out of Thackeray and Shinde, leads the real Shiv Sena party.
The Supreme Court’s cause list shows that this judgment is unanimous and will be pronounced by the CJI.
In eight hearings, the Supreme Court bench had considered the practicalities of reinstating Uddhav Thackeray when he had already resigned after acknowledging that he did not have the required strength of MLAs in the house.
In June 2022, a group of Shiv Sena MLAs led by Eknath Shinde rebelled against Thackeray – saying that the latter’s decision to align with the Congress and the Nationalist Congress Party went against the party’s Hindutva ideology.
When it became evident that the rebel MLAs – with the support of the BJP-appointed governor – would call for a trust vote, the Shinde received disqualification notices from the then-deputy speaker.
The faction moved the Supreme Court to consider whether the rebels should be disqualified.
On June 27, 2022, the top court granted interim relief to Shinde by extending the time to file responses to the disqualification notices. It later, on June 29, gave the go-ahead to a floor test called by the governor.
