Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Bhaskar Jadhav on Saturday claimed that there is no provision in the law which says that the appointment of the leader of opposition (LoP) in Maharashtra legislature is merely on the strength of the party, PTI reported.

"I have given a letter to the legislature secretary seeking details of the provision of law under which the leader of the opposition is appointed. I met the state legislature secretary and he has not found any provision regarding that," Jadhav told PTI reporters.
