Ajit once shared how a mid-air helicopter scare made his stomach sink

Late Maharashtra Deputy CM Ajit Pawar once shared an anecdote about a mid-air scare in 2024. He shared how his "stomach sank" when a helicopter he was travelling in with now-CM Devendra Fadnavis and minister Uday Samant entered thick clouds. He recalled being terrified and chanting "Panduranga, Panduranga" (the name of Lord Vitthal) in his mind. Fadnavis calmed him down.
