The Balasahebanchi Shiv Sena (BSS) on Tuesday termed as “childish” former Maharashtra minister Aaditya Thackeray’s comments, challenging Chief Minister Eknath Shinde to contest election against him from the Worli Assembly seat.

Aaditya, who was a cabinet minister in the erstwhile Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government, headed by his father Uddhav Thackeray, is the sitting MLA of the Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray) from Worli.
