The Shiv Sena (UBT) on Friday said it would move the Delhi High Court to challenge the decision of the Election Commission (EC) on awarding the party’s original name ‘Shiv Sena’ and its symbol ‘Bow and Arrow’ to the Balasahebanchi Shiv Sena headed by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde.Shiv Sena (UBT) chief spokesperson and MP Sanjay Raut slammed the EC move, saying it made a mockery of truth and justice.”… 40 people laid claim over Balasaheb Thackeray’s Shiv Sena and the EC approved it. The script was already written and ready,” said Raut.The Sena (UBT) leader said “the country is heading towards dictatorship” and “the traitor kept saying that the (EC) verdict will be in his favour. A miracle has happened! Keep fighting”.On the other hand, the BSS leaders including Shinde, Shambhuraj Desai and others welcomed the EC move, and said that they would now start working immediately under the new name and symbol.
