Maharashtra Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray has successfully undergone cervical spine surgery at the HN Reliance Hospital in the city, the Chief Minister’s Office (CMO) said on Friday.

Further, the CMO informed, after the surgery, Thackeray, 61, had been moved to a ward, according to two doctors from the hospital, Drs Ajit Desai and Shekhar Bhojraj.
