Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri on Thursday took an auto ride and also interacted in a conversation with an auto driver in the national capital and called it as "unforgettable moment".

"No stage, no meeting... just a journey in an auto in Delhi and conversation with the driver began. Driver Pankaj ji has been provided a pacca Makan (house) by Modi ji, free gas cylinder under PM Ujjwala ... he is getting PM Kisan Samman Nidhi. Even in scorching heat, the affection and love of the driver-sahib towards PM Modi made me forget everything. Truly this is one of the unforgettable moments of my life," Hardeep Singh Puri posted on X.
