New Delhi/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah met inside the Parliament after the Supreme Court ordered a floor test in Maharashtra, media reports said.

 

 

The two leaders discussed the next course of action for Devendra Fadnavis after the SC ruling, an NDTV report said.

The report added that their decision has been communicated to Fadnavis there it was not known what decision they took.

The Supreme Court passed the judgement on the plea filed by the Shiv Sena, NCP and Congress against the government formation by Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)'s Devendra Fadnavis on early morning on Saturday.

A three-Judge bench headed by Justice NV Ramana directed that the floor test should be telecast live and the voting in the assembly should be undertaken through 'open ballot'.

The bench which comprised Justice Ashok Bhushan and Sanjiv Khanna, said that Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari will appoint a Pro-Tem Speaker.

Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis will address a press conference at 3:30 pm on Tuesday.

His ally, NCP's Ajit Pawar, who took the oath as the Deputy CM of Maharashtra in a stunning political development on Nov 23, has already resigned.
