NEW DELHI: The Election Commission (EC) has allotted the poll symbol 'Two Swords & Shield' symbol to the Balasahebanchi Shiv Sena party headed by Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde, officials said.
The EC has made the interim arrangement to enable the party put up a candidate for the upcoming by-polls to Andheri East assembly elections and till the dispute into the matter is resolved.
The EC rejected Shinde's other option -- a Sun with rays -- as it resembled the symbols allotted to some other parties.
