Mumbai: Controversy has arisen in Maharashtra over the distribution of sanitary pads featuring Aditya Thackeray by Shiv Sena workers. MNS has attacked the Shiv Sena fiercely due to the picture of Aditya Thackeray, the state's environment and tourism minister, on packets of sanitary pads. Aditya is the son of the state's CM Uddhav Thackeray and has a considerable presence in the Maharashtra government. He has been on the opposition's target before.
Senior MNS leader Sandeep Deshpande said that Shiv Sena workers distributed 500 sanitary napkins in Old Mumbai's Colaba. He alleged that the packets of all these sanitary napkins distributed among the women had a photo of Aditya Thackeray, the president of the 'Yuva Sena'. This was done during the relief work being carried out in Mumbai amid the lockdown implemented to prevent the corona virus.
