What both sides said ahead of the verdict: Ahead of the verdict, both sides have been engaged in a war of words.
CM Shinde said that the verdict should be given by Narwekar on the basis of merit.
“All I can say is that Shiv Sena has officially been recognised as a party by the Election Commission. The symbol of the bow and arrow is given to us. We have 67 percent majority in Legislative Assembly,” he said.
Meanwhile, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut on Wednesday targeted Narwekar, saying that the verdict was decided in Delhi.
“You know that the verdict may come today, and according to the Constitution, the verdict may disqualify the government. In such a time, PM Modi coming to the state only indicates that he knows what the verdict will be,” Raut said.
