The Supreme Court (SC) on Monday sought the responses of Ajit Pawar and his 40 legislators on a plea moved by the Sharad Pawar faction of Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) challenging the state Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar`s decision to declare the group led by the Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister (CM) as the real NCP.
A bench headed by Chief Justice D Y Chandrachud and Justices J B Pardiwala and Manoj Misra took note of the submissions made by senior advocate Abhishek Singhvi, who appeared in the court on behalf of the Sharad Pawar faction, that the plea needed an urgent hearing keeping in mind the short remnant tenure of the state Assembly.
