Bitter fight for legacy

Things have been bitter between the Uddhav led Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray (UBT) group and the Eknath Shinde led Shiv Sena ever since the split in the party following Shinde and other MLAs openly revolting against Uddhav's leadership and joining hands with the BJP in Maharashtra last year. The Supreme Court of India, hearing the disqualification matter, had come down heavily on then Maharashtra governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari. The apex court had also said that had Uddhav not resigned and taken the floor test, it could have reinstated him as the chief minister.
