In light of the recent death of several patients at state-run hospitals in Nanded and Chhatrapati Sambhajinagar, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray on Saturday termed Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and state Health Minister Tanaji Sawant as "incompetent" and asked why the duo should not be sacked.

In a post on social media platform 'X', Thackeray compared the work done in the health sector during his father Uddhav Thackeray's tenure as the chief minister with that of the present "illegal" regime.
