According to MLA Deepak Kesarkar, the group’s earlier request to the deputy speaker of the assembly was only intended to recognize EknathShinde as the head of the Shiv Sena legislative party. We are still in the Shiv Sena; Deepak Kesarkar said in a statement to India Today. Shiv SenaBalasaheb, our own distinct group, will exist. Like a party, we will have a leader, a whip, an office, and other things.
In accordance with the law, a group of two-thirds of a party’s total MLAs remains the party and the MLAs retain their membership. That is what we are attempting to say. We made numerous attempts to explain the situation to Uddhav Thackeray, but we are unsure of his motives.

Uddhav Thackeray, the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, criticized the EknathShinde camp for naming the organization after Balasaheb Thackeray. “The Maharashtra CM at the meeting said that the leaders who have left Shiv Sena should not ask for votes in the name of Shiv Sena and Balasaheb Thackeray,” Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut said to reporters after the party’s national executive meeting came to an end. Invoke your father’s name when requesting votes.
Shiv Sena members threatened to retaliate against the “rebel” MLAs, prompting the Mumbai Police to impose Section 144 in the city until July 10.
Following intelligence reports of Shiv Sainiks taking to the streets in large numbers, the Maharashtra police, particularly in Mumbai, were placed on high alert on Friday. The removal of security for the families of the 38 “rebel” MLAs was done with “malicious” intent, according to a letter Shiv Sena rebel EknathShinde sent to Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray on Saturday, and it is the state government’s responsibility to protect them and their families, Sanjay Raut earlier stated.
Sanjay More, head of the Pune party unit, warned that “all traitors and rebel MLAs who have troubled our chief Uddhav Thackeray will face this type of action” in response to the attack on Shiv Sena “rebel” MLA TanajiSawant’s office.
In the midst of the ongoing political unrest, a number of key players called crucial meetings on Saturday, and the Leader of the Opposition DevendraFadnavis met with the BJP’s allies Union RamdasAthawale at his home. Deputy Speaker of the State Assembly NarhariZirwal issued disqualification notices to 16 “rebel” MLAs not long after the National Executive Meet, which state ministers Aaditya Thackeray and Uddhav Thackeray both attended, was over. The deadline for the 16 legislators to submit their written responses is June 27. Former Chief Election Commissioner SY Quraish said that the Shiv Sena may have sent the names of 16 ardent members of the “rebel” camp for disqualification in an effort to coerce the other voters who were on the fence to vote for them again.
