"Maharashtra Speaker's Controversial Ruling and the Unraveling of Shiv Sena"
Maharashtra Speaker's decision not to disqualify MLAs from either faction of the Shiv Sena is seen as a win for the BJP, as it avoids potential backlash and sympathy for Uddhav Thackeray's faction ahead of the Lok Sabha elections. The recognition of Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's faction as the real Shiv Sena is perceived as a positive for the BJP, while the MVA partners criticize the verdict. The disqualification of either faction's MLAs would have put the BJP in a difficult position, and the Supreme Court's involvement adds to the political drama.
