In Brief
This interim order concerns a constitutional challenge to the Governor's decision to invite a party to form a government. The Shiv Sena petitioned the Supreme Court questioning the constitutionality of this invitation. The Court heard arguments on the matter but did not immediately adjudicate the substantive issues. Instead, it directed that the Governor's order and relevant letters from the respondent be produced to the Court for examination before passing orders on the interim prayer for a floor test to be conducted within 24 hours.
