Satara:With the oath-taking ceremony of the new Mahayuti government in Maharashtra scheduled on December 5, caretaker Chief Minister Eknath Shinde returned from his native village in Maharashtra's Satara district to Thane on Sunday.
Shinde landed at the Ramand helipad in Thane this afternoon. "My health condition is good. I'm doing fine now," Shinde said while responding to media persons. He will undergo a health checkup after reaching home.
