Maharashtra Deputy Chief Minister Eknath Shinde misplaced his iPhone on a British Airways flight while traveling from London to Mumbai. The device was discovered just an hour after a search began at Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport. Shinde had been in London for a week, attending various events, receiving honors, and meeting cricketer Virat Kohli.
