Earlier, she reached the airport in a long motorcade from Trident Hotel in Hitec City amid tight security.

"Tour of Golkonda Fort with members of the US delegation prior to departing Hyderabad. The perfect end to a remarkable visit," she tweeted with a picture with the US delegates at the historic fort.
