In another development that cast a shadow over the November 3 Andheri East Assembly by-election, the Election Commission (EC) on Friday turned down the Uddhav Thackeray faction’s demand for ample time to submit its challenge to the Eknath Shinde group’s claim over the party symbol, saying it had already sent the information the faction had asked for. While providing the information again later on Friday, the EC asked the Thackeray group to return latest by 2 pm on Saturday with its submission, and said in case of no reply, the commission would take appropriate action in the matter accordingly.
