New Delhi: The Supreme Court agreed on Tuesday to hear tomorrow the petition filed by Uddhav Thackeray challenging the Election Commission’s decision to recognise the Eknath Shinde faction as the ‘official’ Shiv Sena.According to LiveLaw, senior advocate Kapil Sibal, appearing for Thackeray, mentioned the matter before the Chief Justice of India for urgent hearing. The top court is hearing other petitions related to the split in the Shiv Sena.

Chandrachud did not allow it, saying he wants to read the files before the hearing. It will be heard on Wednesday at 3:30 pm, according to LiveLaw.
