      Kaul: As far as whip issue is concerned, on 21st there was a whip appointed by us. They reiterated their faith in another whip.

      CJI DY Chandrachud: There was an existent whip, right?

      Kaul: I'll answer that

      Kaul: There must be overt specific acts- merging with another party, moving with MPs to say we don't have faith- these are overt acts. Our case was not that we didn't have faith in CM. Our argument was that you can't continue with MVA coalition.

      Kaul: Your lordships in Yedurappa held that merely because a dissent is expressed within the party doesn't mean that you're acting against the party and you do not incur the wrath of Art 2(1)(a)

      Kaul: I never argued that we split under the party or we merged. We said we represent the Shivsena and now we are recognised as Shivsena in this matter.

      Kaul: My submission is that these two submissions aren't being made for the first time- that trust vote should not be taken if the government is formed and not when disqualifications are pending. These were made in Shivraj Chouhan and rejected too.

    • 1 March 2023 5:36 AM GMT

      Sr Adv NK Kaul: Let me complete the reading of Shivraj Chouhan and then I will move to the timeline and facts.
