Maharashtra Assembly Speaker Rahul Narvekar on Wednesday ruled the MLAs of either faction of Shiv Sena cannot be disqualified for going “incommunicado” as alleged by the UBT faction. Uddhav Thackeray expressed displeasure over the verdict and termed it the “murder of democracy”.

The Maharashtra Assembly Speaker added that the “Shinde faction was the real Shiv Sena political party when rival factions emerged on 21st June 2022.”

“All the petitions seeking disqualification of MLAs are rejected. No MLA disqualified from any faction of Shiv Sena,” he said.

Uddhav said it seemed the Speaker did not understand his responsibilities. “I think he (speaker Rahul Narvekar) did not understand his responsibilities. Supreme Court provided a framework to be followed and even accepted our nomination of Chief Whip. I think the decision was beyond his understanding. Now we will see if the tribunal is above the Supreme Court…The people of the state do not accept this decision…” Uddhav Thackeray said.

Reacting to the Speaker’s verdict, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut called it “BJP’s conspiracy”.“This is BJP’s conspiracy & this was their dream that one day we would finish Balasaheb Thackeray’s Shiv Sena. But Shiv Sena won’t finish with this one decision…We will go to the Supreme Court,” Raut said.

“A legal battle will be fought against the decision given by the Assembly Speaker. It is shocking that such a decision comes even though we have given all the video recordings to the Election Commission. Democracy has been killed in our country. Hitler Shahi has started in the country.. and he will continue to fight against injustice,” Thackeray said.

BJP leader spokesperson Jaiveer Shergill said Maharashtra made the decision in accordance with the constitution and express confidence that the Shiv Sena (Shinde faction) along with BJP will win the political battle as wel

Speaker Rahul Narvekar said everyone can approach the Supreme Court but it does not necessarily mean the order passed by the Speaker is overturned.

“…Every citizen of India has the right to approach the Supreme Court & High Court. However, just because you approach the court does not mean that the order passed by the Speaker is overturned, you have to establish that it is illegal or untenable in the eyes of the law. Your baseless allocations do not substantiate that…” Narvekar said on Shiv Sena (UBT) on Shiv Sena (UBT) seeking a fight a legal battle over the verdict.
