#MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis #EknathSinde #UddhavThackeray
The plea is likely to be mentioned in the #SupremeCourt today by Sr. Adv @DrAMSinghvi .

#MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis #UddhavThackeray
Dr.AM Singhvi, mentions the matter, says the floor test is illegal. He says the notice for the floor test has come just now. Furthermore asks for a hearing at 5PM or 6PM to ensure that the plea filed is complete. #MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis
Singhvi: The suddenness of the notice, we have no option but to trouble to #SupremeCourt

Kaul for #EknathSinde : position of law is very clear. The pendency of a disqualification application has nothing to do with the floor test.

#MaharashtraPolitcalCrisis
BREAKING: #SupremeCourt bench to hear the matter today. Likely at 5 PM subject to the convinience of the counsels.

Replug 🔌 — Supreme Court’s take on “Floor Test” ordered by Governor in Shivraj Singh Chouhan & Ors Vs. Speaker, MP assembly is relevant in light of #MaharashtraPoliticalTurmoil. Top Court’s take in 2020 was that it was well within powers of a Governor to call for a Floor Test.
Replug: Supreme Court had held that where the Governor has reasons to believe that Council of Ministers headed by Chief Minister has “lost the confidence of the house”, constitutional propriety requires that “the issue be resolved by calling for a floor test” [(2020) 17 SCC 1] —
Replug: It was the Supreme Court’s view at that Where MLA’s of ruling party resigned in an expression of “lack of faith” in existing government, convening a floor test is the surest method of assessing the impact of the resignations on collective will of House [(2020) 17 SCC 1]
