Aaditya, who heads the Yuva Sena, issued several tweets criticising the University earlier in the day after meeting Governor C Vidyasagar Rao, and demanded Tawde's resignation.
Speaking to reporters in the Assembly complex, Tawde said, "Aaditya Thackeray has demanded resignation of the vice chancellor and the education minister. I believe he meant resignations of Mumbai University vice chancellor Dr Sanjay Deshmukh and Ravindra Waikar, the Minister of State for Higher Education (who belongs to the Shiv Sena)."
On Thackeray's question about high fee charged for re-checking of papers, Tawde said, "It is true that Rs 600 are charged. It is a valid question...I will address these issues (in the House) during the session. I can not comment outside."
"I urge you to take their (Tawde's and Vice Chancellor's) resignations for their absolute failure to conduct the basic work of the Mumbai University," Aaditya had said.
