government, on the Internet Wayback Machine and found that his current Twitter bio has not changed. Looking at several old archives of his Twitter profile, it is clear that the word &#8216;Minister&#8217; wasn&#8217;t present in his Twitter bio. For example, below is a screenshot of an archive of Aaditya Thackeray&#8217;s Twitter profile dated <a href=\"https:\/\/web.archive.org\/web\/20220613061404\/https:\/\/twitter.com\/AUThackeray\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">June 13, 2022<\/a>. The current political crisis erupted on June 20. There is no difference between his bio from June 13 and his present bio.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-120770 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/06\/IMG_20220622_144728.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"694\" height=\"932\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/06\/IMG_20220622_144728.jpg 694w, https:\/\/www.altnews.in\/english-clone-2026\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/10\/2022\/06\/IMG_20220622_144728-223x300.jpg 223w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 694px) 100vw, 694px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In fact, this was his bio even after his appointment as the cabinet minister for tourism and environment in the Maharashtra government in December 2020.
