NEW DELHI: The Supreme Court on Monday asked Maharashtra assembly speaker to not take any decision on plea for disqualification of Shiv Sena MLAs of Uddhav Thackeray faction.
The apex court said the matter will require the constitution of a bench and will take some time to be listed. The matter will not be listed tomorrow.
The court asked Solicitor General appearing for Maharashtra governor, to convey its direction to the newly-appointed assembly speaker.
