The two warring factions of the Shiv Sena on Friday sparred over the 'real' email address of Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde during a hearing on the disqualification petitions filed against each other's MLAs before the state assembly Speaker.

The Shinde camp argued that the address on which an email was sent to him by then chief whip Sunil Prabhu in June 2022 -- when Shinde's revolt against Uddhav Thackeray's leadership rocked the party -- was not the one which he used for official communication.
