Hitting back over the BJP's demand that Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray hand over the charge to someone until he gets well, state Congress chief Nana Patole said on Wednesday that Prime Minister Narendra Modi should do the same thing.

As Thackeray, who is recuperating after a spine surgery, did not attend the state legislature here on the first day of the winter session, his son and minister Aaditya Thackeray said he would be present in the House whenever needed.
