The Maharashtra assembly will vote at 11 am today to elect its speaker a day after Uddhav Thackeray's Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress government sailed through the floor test amid protests led by the BJP's Devendra Fadnavis. The BJP has nominated MLA Kisan S Kathore as its candidate for today's election against the Congress MLA Nana Patole, the nominee of the Shiv Sena-NCP-Congress alliance.
