The petitioners want to highlight the media reports alleging  the closure of nine (9) cases in the 70,000/- crore irrigation scam against Shri. Ajit Pawar.

"If the Court gives only 24 hrs time to prove the majority, we will not press the application", sources told LiveLaw.

According to the petitioners the allegation regarding closure of serious economic offences against Ajit Pawar even before the floor test is completely illegal. The Chief Minister cannot take major policy decisions without succeeding in the floor test.The government which is illegally and unconstitutionally formed is admittedly a minority government and does not enjoy the support of the majority.
