Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray is recovering "rapidly" after a spine surgery and will soon resume work, Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Raut said on Tuesday.
Mr Thackeray, 61, underwent the spine surgery at the HN Reliance Hospital on November 12.
He is currently taking physiotherapy treatment at the hospital, the Chief Minister's Office (CMO) had said on Monday.
