Maharashtra CM Eknath Shinde's Helicopter Develops Technical Snag, Makes Emergency Landing In Mumbai

Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's helicopter had to make an emergency landing in Mumbai on Thursday. It was reported that Shinde was en route to his village via helicopter, taking off from Raj Bhavan. However, due to technical issues, an emergency landing was necessary at Juhu Airport in Mumbai, as stated by the 'ABP Majha' news channel.

The reports further indicated that Shinde is now continuing his journey to his village by car. The unfavorable weather conditions prevented the helicopter from proceeding towards the Satara district. Consequently, the decision was made to perform an emergency landing at Juhu Airport.

However, this isn't the first time that Shinde's helicopter encountered issues.

In May 2023, during a flight over Satara, Chief Minister Eknath Shinde's helicopter faced technical problems. This incident led to an emergency landing at Raj Bhavan. Shinde was on his way to Satara for an event. However, due to the helicopter's malfunction, his visit had to be canceled.
