"We Trusted Science": Aaditya Thackeray On How Maharashtra Fought Covid

"We have been terribly hit by Covid. What we realised very soon is that it is a pandemic and numbers will be high. In that case, we have to be transparent with people and help them. Secondly, we trusted science. There was a lot of back and forth when do you go into lockdown. Go into a staggered manner and come out in a staggered manner. If you ask anyone in the state today, they know we are going by what science says," says Maharashtra Environment Minister Aaditya Thackeray at the Swasth India telethon.
