Shiv Sena leader Eknath Shinde could not have been sworn in as the chief minister of Maharashtra if the assembly speaker was not restrained from deciding the disqualification petitions pending against 39 MLAs, the Supreme Court said on Wednesday.
Accusing the government of large scale corruption, Opposition parties in the Lok Sabha on Thursday asked it to disclose the names of those who have stashed unaccounted money in foreign banks.
On Thursday, the MLAs met at a local hotel to adopt a motion of 'no-confidence' against the chief minister and elect another dissident Congress MLA, Khaliko Pul, in his place.
