Shiv Sena (UBT) issues fresh show cause notice to absentee MPs, threatens 'disqualification'

Shiv Sena (UBT) on Saturday issued a fresh 'Show Cause' notice to MPs who failed to attend the party meeting, threatening disqualification from the party.

Party's Chief Whip in Lok Sabha Anil Desai has issued a formal notice to the absentee MPs, giving them a strict 24-hour deadline to provide a written explanation for their behavior.

The notice, as accessed by ANI, carries a stern warning.

If the MPs fail to respond to the communication within the stipulated time, the party will assume they have voluntarily given up their membership. Consequently, the politicians will face action under the Tenth Schedule of the Indian Constitution (the Anti-Defection Law).
