Maharashtra Speaker survives legal scrutiny, public glare

IndiaTimes Thursday, 11 January 2024
Rahul Narwekar, the youngest Speaker in the history of the state assembly, has faced petitions for disqualification of Shiv Sena MLAs. Despite SC's displeasure, he has survived scrutiny by sticking to the given deadline. His handling of the case and conduct as Speaker has earned him praise within the BJP. Narwekar, seen as someone with legal acumen, may receive a Lok Sabha ticket. However, his electoral prospects may be affected by sympathy for Sena and criticism of his role.
