Maharashtra Chief Minister Eknath Shinde on Sunday said a special flight would be arranged to bring back students hailing from the State stranded in riot-hit Manipur.
The 22 students from Maharashtra who are currently in the turmoil-racked north-eastern State would first be shifted to Assam from where a special flight would bring them back home, said Mr. Shinde in a statement issued by his office.
Mr. Shinde further said the State government was closely monitoring the situation in Manipur.
