The Supreme Court on Tuesday told Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) leader Uddhav Thackeray that his case against an Election Commission (EC) order allotting the party name ‘Shiv Sena’ and symbol, ‘the bow and arrow’, to Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde will come up only after a Constitution Bench wraps up hearing a challenge to the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.
The Article 370 case is scheduled to start from August 2. It has been pending in the top court for several years.
“Wait for the Jammu and Kashmir matter to get over,” Chief Justice of India D.Y. Chandrachud addressed advocate Amit Anand Tiwari, who made an urgent mentioning for Mr. Thackeray.
