Shiv Sena-UBT leader Aaditya Thackeray has said he will not celebrate his birthday on Friday, and party workers too should not greet him, in view of the Air India plane tragedy in Ahmedabad. 

"I have decided to not celebrate my birthday tomorrow, as earlier planned....Seeing today's tragic events that have unfolded, my prayers, like everyone else's are with the victims and their families," he said on X. 

"I will humbly request everyone who planned/ wished to meet and greet me tomorrow, to kindly honour my request," the former Maharashtra minister said.
