Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and his deputy Devendra Fadnavis should resign on moral grounds like I did last year, former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray said on Thursday, ANI reported.
“Shinde won after murdering democracy,” said the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) chief, according to The Indian Express.
Thackeray made the remarks soon after the Supreme Court held that former Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari had erred in deciding that the Thackeray government had lost its majority after a group of Shiv Sena MLAs, led by Shinde, revolted in June.
However, the five-judge Constitution bench led by Chief Justice DY Chandrachud also said that it cannot restore the Maha Vikas Aghadi government as Thackeray had resigned as the chief minister without facing a floor test.
