Mumbai: Even as the Maharashtra embroglio deepens, Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray, whose seat is under threat, has tested positive for the coronavirus, senior Congress leader Kamal Nath said on Wednesday, adding that he was unable to meet him.
“We had a meeting with Uddhav Thackeray but he has tested positive for Covid. That’s why I cannot meet him,” Nath told the media as he led efforts to keep the party’s flock together. The Shiv Sena leader is holding a meeting of his cabinet via video conferencing.
