A bench headed by Chief Justice S. A. Bobde queried, could the Congress hold the position of LoP and also be a part of the ruling coalition in Maharashtra? Senior advocate Mukul Rohatgi, representing BJP Councillor Prabhakar Tukaram Shinde, contended that this is completely fatal to democracy. How can you have this? Mukul submitted before the bench also comprising Justices A. S. Bopanna and V. Ramasubramanian.
