Eknath Shinde faction argues in Supreme Court ‘legislative majority’ still a factor to decide ‘real’ Shiv Sena

During a Supreme Court hearing on the Shiv Sena split, the faction led by Eknath Shinde argued that a party’s legislative majority should still determine its authentic identity. The group pointed to the Court’s 2023 Constitution Bench ruling in the Subhash Desai case, saying that judgment did not reject the majority test as a valid criterion.
