Maharashtra CM Uddhav submits resignation to governor after SC refuses to stay floor test
Maharashtra chief minister Uddhav Thackeray on Wednesday resigned ahead of floor test tomorrow. The Supreme Court rejected Uddhav government's plea and refused to stay the floor test in the Maharashtra assembly tomorrow. A vacation bench of Justices Surya Kant and J B Pardiwala heard arguments on behalf of Shiv Sena, its rebel MLAs led by Eknath Shinde, and the Governor on the plea in the hearing conducted after 5 pm through hybrid mode.

CM Uddhav Thackeray thanked all the ministers and bureaucrats for their co-operation for the last 2.5 years. Thackeray also said that his own people have brought upon this situation on him.
18:45 (IST) Jun 29
Justice Kant: Assuming a floor test takes place, who are competent to participate?
Tomorrow if these people are disqualified, then the pool changes.. the Supreme Court has clarified that there is no connection with the floor test, says Kaul
18:34 (IST) Jun 29
Supreme Court in its judgment had said disqualification proceedings have no bearing on Floor Test, Kaul said
Supreme Court says the moment a CM shows reluctance, it prima facie gives the view that he has lost the confidence of the House.

Maharashtra state cabinet approves the renaming of Aurangabad to Sambhaji Nagar and Osmanabad to Dharashiv. Navi Mumbai Airport's name will be changed to DB Patil International Airport.

Amid reports of Eknath Shinde group arriving in Mumbai tomorrow, Mumbai Police on alert. Notices sent to NCP, Shiv Sena, Congress, BJP, SP leaders asking them to not give instigating statements or release objectionble posts. Stringent action if situation deteriorates: Mumbai Police
18:23 (IST) Jun 29
When we came to Your Lordships, our principle reasons was that the Supreme Court had said in Nabam Rabia that till the Speaker’s own removal is decided, it is impressible and prohibited for him to proceed: Kaul

How will MLAs vote? Which whip will they follow if both sides issue a whip? Justice can be done either if the fetter on the Speaker is lifted or if the floor test is deferred

People who have changed sides do not reflect the will of people and heavens won't fall if floor test is not held tomorrow: Singhvi to SC
18:07 (IST) Jun 29
Our understanding is that floor of the house is the only way to settle these issues of democracy: Supreme Court
18:01 (IST) Jun 29
Maharashtra rebel MLAs, led by Eknath Shinde, who were camping in Guwahati on Wednesday checked out of the hotel.
17:55 (IST) Jun 29
Justice Kant: Is it correct that in the present case, they want the opposition to form government?
Yes, it says so in the letter of the governor, Singhvi said.
17:49 (IST) Jun 29
The people who have changed sides and defected cannot represent the will of the people. Can't the Governor trust the Court to not call a floor test tomorrow? Will heavens fall if there is no floor test tomorrow?
Singhvi

May I completely answer with a hypothetical question. Suppose in a case, people have simply defected. They walked to the otherside, and the governor asked for a floor test. Will this not blow away the tenth schedule to smithereens, Singhvi said.
17:46 (IST) Jun 29
Suppose a govt knows that they have lost the majority of the house, and the speaker is asked to issue disqualification to those withdrawing support. Then at that point should the Governor wait for calling a floor test or can he independently decide under Article 174, asks Justice Kant:
17:40 (IST) Jun 29
We are not rebels. We are Shiv Sena. We are carrying forward the agenda and ideology of Balasaheb Thackeray's Shiv Sena. We will work for the Hindutva ideology and development of the state

17:37 (IST) Jun 29
We will reach Mumbai tomorrow and participate in the Trust Vote. After that, a meeting of the Legislative Party will be held, following this the further course of action will be decided

That apart, another contention is on the undue haste shown in the matter. The Governor is bound to act on the aid and advise of the Council of ministers. Here he may act on the advise of ministers or not, but definitely cannot act on the advice of opposition, says Singhvi
17:36 (IST) Jun 29
If these MLAs are allowed to vote tomorrow, then milordships would be permitting voting by MLAs who may be disqualified later. That goes to the root to the democratic principles, says Singhvi
