Woman’s Encounter With Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman Makes Her Day

It was a normal day for this woman, from Gurugram, until she spotted Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman on her Bengaluru flight. The unexpected meeting left Aarzoo, a developer at Zomato, on cloud nine as she got a chance to interact with the finance minister and click a selfie with her. She shared that the incident made her day. The photos of the meeting have now gone viral, grabbing a lot of attention on social media.

Aarzoo narrated a heartwarming incident that occurred during her journey to Bengaluru. Posting a picture with Nirmala Sitharaman on Twitter, the techie expressed her excitement at meeting such an influential and inspiring personality. She wrote, “What are the odds of boarding the same plane as the Finance minister, Nirmala ma’am. An inspiration for many, this really made my day.”

Aarzoo’s chance encounter with Finance Minister received a lot of attention from social media users, some of whom expressed their admiration for Nirmala Sitharaman’s work.

One user praised her for handling the Indian economy well, saying, “The best among the current finance ministers across the world. The way she handled the Indian economy compared to the rest of the countries with not-so-major collapses is really commendable. Data tells she is pretty great at her job.”

Another highlighted the rarity of the chance to have an encounter with the finance minister on a flight and wrote, “Well, Assuming the FM takes 10 business/first class flights per month with 30 passengers per flight, the pool of potential passengers is reduced to 300. With 14.31 million monthly passengers, the odds of a person flying on the same plane as the FM is approx. 1 in 47,700.”

Another person agreed with Aarzoo’s caption and wrote, “Lucky you. She is really quite a down-to-earth kind of person.”

One of the users suggested, “Lucky to meet her, get her contact and send the feedback about the public problems directly.”
