The most important takeaway from the Sena vs Sena verdict:
— The Supreme Court states that the status quo cannot be restored as Uddhav Thackeray did not face the floor test and tendered his resignation. Hence, the governor was justified in administering the oath to Eknath Shinde with the support of the largest party, which is the BJP.

— The Supreme Court said it cannot disqualify Eknath Shinde and 15 other MLAs for revolting against then Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray in June last year.
— The court censured then Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari, saying he had “erred” in concluding that Uddhav Thackeray had lost the support of the majority of MLAs. If Shinde and his MLAs had been disqualified, he would have had to resign as Maharashtra Chief Minister and his government would be disbanded.
