New Delhi/UNI: The Supreme Court Monday said it will hear on Jul 20 a petition moved by MLAs from Uddhav Thackeray-led Shiv Sena camp after the Maharashtra Speaker called for their disqualification in the aftermath of Eknath Shinde taking over as chief minister.

Senior lawyer, Devadatt Kamat mentioned the fresh writ petition filed by 14 Shiv Sena MLAs of Thackeray camp against disqualification proceedings and the top court said it will hear the pleas along with other petitions filed in the connected cases.
