Eknath Shinde took oath as CM on June 30 along with Deputy Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis after the collapse the Shiv Sena-led coalition government.
The Bombay High Court on Wednesday directed the Maharashtra government to file a reply on a petition challenging its decision to stay circulars relating to certain appointments and development projects taken up by the erstwhile Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) administration.
A division bench headed by Justice S V Gangapurwala, while directing for the reply affidavit to be filed by August 17, said it would like to know the reason (behind the decision).
Government pleader PP Kakade had sought time to respond to the plea which was allowed.
"We would like to know the reason...we may not go into the sufficiency of the reason," the court said.
