Sena challenges Maha floor test order in SC; Raut tears into BJP-Eknath nexus

• Shiv Sena has moved the Supreme Court after Maharashtra governor called for a floor test in the state. Party chief whip Sunil Prabhu challenged the Maharashtra Governor's order where he called upon CM Uddhav Thackeray to prove majority on the floor of the house tomorrow at 11 AM. The matter was mentioned before the apex court by AM Singhvi for an urgent hearing by evening. This comes soon after Sanjay Raut said that the Uddhav Thackeray faction will challenge governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari's decision in the Supreme Court. "This is an unlawful activity. The issue of disqualification of 16 MLAs is pending in the Supreme Court. Now if BJP and Governor House are trying to bring down the government, we will approach the Supreme Court and seek justice. The speed in which the Raj Bhavan has acted on the demand [by BJP] is faster than the Rafael jets purchased by [Prime Minister Narendra] Modi," said Raut.
