On January 10, Maharashtra Legislative Assembly Speaker Rahul Narwekar declared that the faction led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde is the authentic Shiv Sena political party, settling a dispute that arose in 2022 when rival factions emerged.
Both factions had filed petitions seeking the disqualification of each other's MLAs following a split in the party in June 2022.
Eknath Shinde and several MLAs had rebelled against then-Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, leading to the collapse of the Maha Vikas Aghadi, which included the Nationalist Congress Party and the Congress.
