Uddhav Thackeray, former Maharashtra Chief Minister and Shiv Sena (UBT) chief was admitted to Reliance Hospital in Mumbai on Monday to undergo tests to identify blockages in his heart and arteries, with angiography likely to follow.

The Shiv Sena (UBT) leader and son of Uddhav Thackeray posted on X, "This morning, Uddhav Thackeray ji did a pre-planned detailed checkup at the Sir HN Reliance Hospital."

He further thanked everyone for the best wishes, adding that his father is ready to serve people. "With your best wishes, all is well, and he is fully ready to get to work and serve the people," Aditya added in his post. 

On Sunday, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Uddhav Thackeray said that the MVA will announce their chief ministerial face after Mahayuti.

Addressing a joint press conference, Uddhav Thackeray said, "BJP's condition is so bad, that they are forced to contest under the leadership of thieves and traitors... Let Mahayuti announce their CM face first, then we will let you all know who is our CM face. Being in government, Mahayuti should announce their CM face first.

"As the Maharashtra assembly election draws near, Opposition Maha Vikas Aghadi on Sunday released a booklet titled 'Gaddarancha Panchnama' accusing the Mahayuti-led Maharashtra government of "betraying" the dharma of Maharashtra. The assembly elections in Maharashtra are expected to be held later this year.

The upcoming assembly election will see a contest between two alliances. On one side, the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) alliance, which includes the Shiv Sena (UBT), NCP (Sharad Pawar faction), and Congress, and the Maha Yuti Alliance, comprising the BJP, Shiv Sena (Eknath Shinde faction), and NCP (Ajit Pawar faction).
