My resignation may have been wrong, but did it on moral grounds, says Uddhav Thackeray after SC ruling

Mumbai, 11/5: Stepping up his attack against the current Maharashtra goverment after the Supreme Court verdict on the political crisis in the state, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray on Thursday said that Eknath Shinde should resign as chief minister like he did.

They [now Shinde faction MLAs] betrayed my party and the legacy of my father. My resignation as the CM then may have been wrong legally, but I did it on moral grounds,” said Thackeray.

 

The Supreme Court, in its verdict, said that then Maharashtra Governor B S Koshyari’s decision to call for a floor test was wrong, but said that it could restore the Uddhav-led government as Thackeray had resigned before the trust
