MUMBAI: Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray underwent a successful surgery of the cervical spine on Friday, according to Dr Ajit Desai and Dr Shekhar Bhojraj of the H N Reliance hospital.
The doctors said that he is stable and has been shifted to his own room in the hospital.
Thackeray had been admitted to the hospital on Thursday evening. He had issued a statement saying he had neglected his neck pain for some time owing to the challenges posed in tackling the pandemic and that this had taken its toll.
Questions about Thackeray’s health surfaced after he attended the virtual launch of road projects at Pandharpur by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday, wearing a cervical collar. Thackeray had undergone an angioplasty in 2012. TNN
