A state government plane carrying Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and Deputy CM Devendra Fadnavis to Jalgaon district returned to Mumbai on Monday after it encountered bad weather, an official from the CM's office said.

Shinde and Fadnavis were headed to Jamner in Jalgaon district, located around 415 kilometres from Mumbai, to attend a programme, 'Banjara Kumbh 2023', where Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was a key speaker.
