Financial Express Mumbai|February 18, 2023
RULING ON A dispute that began in June last year, the Election Commission decided Friday that the Shiv Sena faction led by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde was the real Shiv Sena as opposed to the group led by former CM Uddhav Thackeray.
Shinde faction real Shiv Sena, says EC

ALLOTS NAME AND SYMBOL

In its 77-page order, the three-member commission relied on the test of majority, which the Shinde faction was able to prove it had with the support of 40 out of 67 MLAS and MLCs in Maharashtra and 13 out of 22 MPs in both Houses of Parliament.

The EC decided that the "test of party Constitution" could not be relied upon as the party had not submitted a copy of its amended Constitution in 2018 and the document itself had been changed to become more undemocratic.
