According to the 10th Schedule, Eknath Shinde and Rebels Cannot Call Themselves the Actual Shiv Sena Achary: PDT Achary
By - Kshitij Srivastava
Eknath Shinde, the recently sworn-in chief minister of Maharashtra, cannot claim to speak for the actual Shiv Sena, according to PDT Achary, a former secretary general of the Lok Sabha.
The anti-defection statute under the tenth schedule of the Constitution, according to Achary, forbids such a plea, according to an interview with Manu Sebastian, the managing editor of LiveLaw. He can only argue that two parties have merged and that his group makes up two thirds of the legislative party.
