“We’ve lost one of our most hard working and kind hearted Yuva Sainik. Have no words to express the grief felt by us in the Yuva Sena. Om shanti,” he tweeted on Thursday, April 6.

As reported by local media, Durga was admitted to Bombay Hospital recently after she faced health issues while participating in a protest march led by Aaditya Thackeray in Thane. She died during the treatment, several state media outlets reported.
