Crucial legal pointers for Pawar vs Pawar from Sena vs Sena

NCP chief Sharad Pawar has chosen not to pursue a legal battle after several MLAs defected to the BJP-Sena government in Maharashtra. Instead, he plans to rebuild his party from scratch and go directly to the people. This decision comes after a look at the legal battles faced by the Shiv Sena last year, which did not end favorably. The rebellion led by Ajit Pawar mirrors a similar rebellion by Eknath Shinde last year, and the legal outcomes of that case may provide some hints on the future of the NCP.
