SC agrees to hear Shiv Sena (UBT) plea against merger of 6 MPs with Shinde-led Shiv Sena

In a significant development, the Supreme Court will deliberate on a challenge to the Lok Sabha Speaker's endorsement of a merger between six Shiv Sena (UBT) MPs and Eknath Shinde's group. This ruling was made right before the commencement of the Monsoon session. Shiv Sena (UBT) argues for the disqualification of these MPs based on anti-defection statutes. Notice has been served, and responses are anticipated in the next fortnight.
