In a letter written to the Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) chief Bhushan Gagrani, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray raised concerns over the poor working conditions of assistant professors appointed at the municipal hospitals as they demanded permanent posts at BMC hospitals.

Aaditya Thackeray said that only 243 positions have been filled against the 801 available posts of assistant professors across the four medical and one dental municipal colleges.
