The New Indian Express Tirupati
|July 03, 2025
The Supreme Court on Wednesday refused an early hearing to Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena (UBT) group plea on the allocation of 'bow and arrow' symbol for the ensuing Maharashtra local body elections.
A bench of Justices M M Sundresh and K Vinod Chandran agreed to list it on July 14, when the court reopens after the summer vacation.
Senior lawyer, Devadatt Kamat, appearing for the UBT group, mentioned before the two-judge vacation bench that the local elections are going to be announced anytime next week in the state. "We are seeking some ad interim directions, like it was issued in the NCP (Nationalist Congress Party) matter. The symbol has been awarded to them (Eknath Shinde section)," he submitted.
