After the demise of Congress leader Shivraj Patil, Shiv Sena (UBT) chief Uddhav Thackeray said, "He fulfilled the duties that were given to him by the Congress party." "He was the Home Minister when the 26/11 Mumbai attacks occurred. He took responsibility and admitted that it was his failure," Thackeray added. Patil passed away at the age of 90.
