Amid the political crisis in Maharashtra, Maharashtra CM Uddhav Thackeray has said that he may have vacated the chief minister's official residence, but his determination is intact. While virtually addressing the party's district unit chiefs and 'sampark pramukhs' assembled at the Shiv Sena Bhavan at Dadar in central Mumbai.


"Despite the rebellions that the party has faced earlier, it came to power twice. I may have left 'Varsha', the chief minister's official residence, but not my determination," he said. Thackeray added that in the last two-and-a-half years, he battled the Covid-19 pandemic as well as his own ill-health, but opponents took advantage of this situation. Thackeray's son and cabinet minister Aaditya Thackeray was present at the Shiv Sena Bhavan during the chief minister's address.
