In a huge setback for Uddhav Thackeray in his fight against Eknath Shinde, the Supreme Court today refused to stop the Election Commission from deciding who forms the real Shiv Sena.
Uddhav Thackeray's faction had requested the Supreme Court to stop the Election Commission from deciding on the claim of Eknath Shinde-led group over the "real" Shiv Sena and its symbol.
The Supreme Court's Constitution bench heard the petition. Uddhav Thackeray's government in Maharashtra crashed in June after a coup led by his former aide Eknath Shinde split the Shiv Sena, founded by his father Bal Thackeray. Mr Shinde went on to form a new government along with the BJP.
