Shiv Sena wants to remove four more rebel MLAs from office

According to a senior lawmaker on Friday evening, the Shiv Sena has forwarded the names of four more dissident MLAs to the deputy speaker of the Maharashtra legislature so that she can begin the process of disqualifying them.

According to Sena MP Arvind Sawant in Mumbai, the party would also send notifications to 16 MLAs of the rebel faction and want a response by Monday.

Sanjay Raymulkar, Chiman Patil, Ramesh Bornare, and Balaji Kalyankar were the four lawmakers whose names were sent to the deputy speaker, he claimed.

Despite sending them a letter, none of them showed up for the party meeting on Wednesday night in Mumbai, Sawant claimed.

The party has already requested the disqualification of 12 MLAs, including Eknath Shinde, the leader of the breakaway camp.
