The court has suggested the Deputy Speaker give details on the plea of Shinde the rebel MLAs leader. This is pertaining to the No Confidence motion.
Now the CM Uddhav and Deputy Speaker have to answer the Court. The court would take up the matter on July eleventh. The Court has given five days time to the Government to file the response.
It’s a major relief to the Shinde group in terms of the disqualification. The SC has suggested holding back the disqualification orders until the matter is heard in the court.
The petitioner Eknath Shinde’s primary submission is that the Deputy Speaker Narhari Sitaram Zirwal’s action in initiating the disqualification proceedings is arbitrary and illegal, since a motion to remove him as Deputy Speaker is pending; and that Sunil Prabhu, the Chief Whip of Shiv Sena no longer holds his post and therefore cannot petition to the Deputy Speaker for disqualification of the rebel members.
The petition also maintains that since Narhari Zirwal did not resign from the primary membership of his party NCP, his actions are biased and based on malafide considerations.
The decision on the no-confidence motion will be taken first.
