The state government led by the Shiv Sena faction of Eknath Shinde with the BJP’s support is here to stay. The Supreme Court, which heard petitions on Maharashtra’s power crisis over 10 months, ruled that the then governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari was not justified in calling for a floor test, as there was nothing to show that the then chief minister Uddhav Thackeray had lost the confidence of the house. But there was nothing wrong in his decision to call Shinde to form government thereafter, it noted.
Delivering the judgment on Thursday, the Supreme Court bench led by Chief Justice of India D Y Chandrachud noted that the governor did not have reasons based on objective material before him to reach the conclusion that Thackeray had lost the confidence of the House.
