The Supreme Court questioned the Ajit Pawar-led NCP faction’s compliance with its order to publish media advertisements acknowledging the ongoing legal battle over the party symbol ‘clock’. Senior advocate A.M. Singhvi, representing Sharad Pawar’s faction, informed the court that Ajit Pawar’s group had not yet adhered to the directive amidst the ongoing election season. The court dismissed attempts to review the order, emphasizing its clarity and simplicity. The dispute arose when Ajit Pawar’s faction joined the BJP government, prompting Sharad Pawar to seek restraint on the clock symbol’s use. The court’s March 19 order permitted Ajit Pawar’s use of the symbol but mandated transparency about the legal dispute.
