The CM's office has said that the trip was a personal one and that he was visiting his daughters who are studying in London. However, the opposition parties have accused him of misusing public money and have demanded an explanation for the high cost of the flight.

The CM has defended the use of the chartered flight, saying that it was necessary for security reasons. He has also said that he will reimburse the state government for the cost of the flight.

The controversy over the CM's London trip is the latest in a series of controversies that have surrounded him since he took office in 2019. He has been accused of corruption, nepotism, and misuse of power. The opposition parties have called for his resignation, but he has so far refused to step down.

It remains to be seen whether the CM will be able to weather the latest controversy and remain in office. However, the public anger over the use of public money for his personal trip is likely to damage his reputation and make it more difficult for him to govern the state.
