The helicopter carrying Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde from his native village in Satara district to Pune had to return to the village on Friday afternoon due to rainy weather, officials said.
The chief minister and the others flying in the helicopter were safe, they said.

Sameer Shaikh, Superintendent of Police of Satara, said the chopper took off from the helipad at Dare around 4pm but turned back soon.
The weather was clear over Satara and Pune but after noticing rain clouds in the distance, the pilots decided to return to the helipad as a precaution, he said.
The chief minister later left for Pune by car.
