Union Minister Purandhareswari today made a faux pas by getting into the car of YSR Congress party president YS Jaganmohan reddy at the Visakhapatnam airport.

Purandhareswari, who flew from Delhi this morning, came out of the airport after alighting from the plane, and straight away headed towards the car of Jagan at the VIP parking lot and got into it thinking it to be the car that came to pick her up.

Confused congress workers, who were there in large numbers, immediately told the Minister that it was the car waiting to pick up Jagan coming from Hyderabad. She immediately corrected herself by getting down from it and getting into another car which was parked just beside the car meant for Jagan.

An array of cars came to Visakhapatnam airport this morning to pick up Jagan and follow him in his Odarpu Yatra which he began in Vijayanagaram district today. Congress MP Sabbam Hari, MLA Babu Rao and others received Jagan at the airport.
