Sources said Thackeray was supposed to resign and then visit the memorial of Shiv Sena founder Balasaheb Thackeray on the evening of June 22, but it did not happen.

He said Thackeray’s address at 5 pm was also delayed beyond 5.30 pm due to change in plans.

In his Facebook address on June 22, Thackeray spoke about the rebel MLAs’ willingness to come to Mumbai and step down if they make such a demand.

Hours later, Thackeray along with his family members left his official residence ‘Varsha’ for family residence Matoshree.

In his address, the Chief Minister said that he is ready to tender his resignation to those party MLAs who can take it to the Raj Bhavan.

Thackeray had also indicated his willingness to step down as party chief on the demand of party workers.

Noting that a section of party MLAs were firing bullets to oust him, he had said that instead of going to Surat, he could have conveyed their feelings to him. Thackeray said it was a matter of shame for him if “even an MLA” was against him.

The rebel Shiv Sena MLAs moved from Surat to Guwahati and claimed the growing support of Shiv Sena MLAs. Shinde had on Wednesday claimed that he had the support of 46 MLAs, including six to seven independents. Shiv Sena has 55 MLAs in the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly. In a fresh blow to the Uddhav Thackeray camp, Uday Samant joined the rebel group on 26 June. He is the eighth Shiv Sena minister to join the rebel camp.

He said, ‘I am ready to give my resignation to the MLAs, they should come here and take my resignation to the Raj Bhavan. I am also ready to quit the post of Shiv Sena party chief, not at the behest of others but at the behest of my workers. was added.

Thackeray had also referred to the ruling Maha Vikas Aghadi alliance and said that NCP leader Sharad Pawar and Congress chief Sonia Gandhi helped him a lot and kept his faith in him.

Thackeray said that when all the three parties came together in 2019, Pawar told him that he had to take the responsibility of the post of CM.

“I didn’t even have earlier experience. But I took the responsibility. Sharad Pawar and Sonia Gandhi helped me a lot, they kept their faith in me. But what can I say when my own people (MLAs) don’t want me? I am. If they had anything against me, then what was the need to say all this in Surat, they could have come here and said this in front of me.’

Both the Shiv Sena and the rebel group are trying to outdo each other. While the Thackeray group removed Shinde from the post of legislature party leader and appointed a new chief whip, Shinde’s supporters wrote to the state governor that he remained the leader of the Shiv Sena legislature group. He also appointed a Chief Whip.

The fight between the groups has now reached Supreme court Which on Monday granted interim relief to Shinde and other MLAs to file their replies to the disqualification notices issued by the Deputy Speaker of the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly by 5.30 pm on July 12.

Earlier, the deputy speaker had given him time till 5.30 pm on Monday to file his reply.

A vacation bench of Justices Surya Kant and JB Pardiwala in its order said, “As an interim measure, the time for the petitioners or other similar MLAs to submit their submissions by the Deputy Speaker is extended till 5.30 pm today. Till July, the petitioner or other MLA is free to give his reply in the writ petition without prejudice to his rights.”

The top court was hearing petitions filed by the Shinde group, challenging the issuance of disqualification notices by the deputy speaker to 16 rebel MLAs and the appointment of Ajay Choudhary as the leader of the Shiv Sena legislature party.

The bench also issued notices to the deputy speaker, secretary of the Maharashtra state assembly, Centre, Ajay Choudhary and Sunil Prabhu, and asked them to file their replies within five days.

On a request to provide security to 39 MLAs alleging threats, the Supreme Court recorded the statement of Maharashtra government’s standing counsel Rahul Chitnis that adequate steps have already been taken and the state government will further ensure that no harm is caused. Not because of life, liberty, property of MLAs.

During the hearing, senior advocate Neeraj Kishan Kaul, appearing for Eknath Shinde and others, told the Supreme Court that the vice-chairman cannot proceed with the disqualification proceedings when the motion to remove them is pending.
