Maharashtra Chief Minister does not goes out of his house. By sitting in Varsha residence one does not understand the situation in the state. Opposition is constantly criticizing the Chief Minister for working from home. There have been some unpleasant incidents in the states in the last few days. Accidents in hospitals resulted in major casualties.

However, the Chief Minister did not go there and take stock of the situation. The relatives who lost their loved ones in the accident were not comforted. Opposition groups called for a boycott of the assembly. Environment Minister Aditya Thackeray has responded to this criticism.

Wherever there is an accident, the police and fire brigade immediately reaches the spot. The local system reaches the spot. Relief work begins immediately. When a VIP goes to such a place, it affects the relief work there. Relief work is delayed, said Aditya Thackeray. There have been some unpleasant incidents in the last few days in the state. The Health Minister and the Guardian Minister reached the locations and reviewed the situation. There was an urgent need for help. That help was delivered there, said Aditya.

Every time it is not possible to come on TV and comfort people. There is no need to appear on TV in every case, said Aditya Thackeray. 'If we viit the accident site, the crowd there automatically increases. Police deployment has to be increased. This affects the relief work that is going on there. We talk to the media when we get there. At that time there are obstacles in the relief work. Where the relief work should be done quickly, the same thing is delayed due to the visit of the VIP, 'said Aditya Thackeray.

In case of an accident in an area, the local people's representative, the Guardian Minister goes there and reviews the situation. They try to make the relief work faster. Accidents have occurred in hospitals in the last few days. At that time, the Guardian Minister had reached the spot. The Chief Minister contacts the district administration and reviews the situation. The Chief Minister is responsible for maintaining coordination between the Centre and the State. Chief Ministers of other states are also working in the same manner at present, said Aditya.
