Punjab CM Bhagwant Mann wedding today: Here are exclusive photos, venue details
Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann will tie the wed knot for the second time on Thursday, July 7. The 48-year-old politician separated from his first wife, Inderpreet Kaur, nearly six year ago. He has two children from his first marriage (daughter Seerat Kaur Mann and son Dilshan Mann). The Punjab Chief Minister is getting married to Dr Gurpreet Kaur, who belongs to Pehowa in Haryana's Kurukshetra. The marriage will be conducted as per Sikh rituals. The wedding ceremony will be attended by Delhi Chief Minister and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) national convenor Arvind Kejriwal and his family. However, no minister or other big leaders are invited to the ceremony. Reportedly, Dr Gurpreet Kaur belongs to a Sikh family and has been chosen by Mann's mother and sister who wanted him to get married again. State ministers Harjot Bains and Aman Arora as well as the party's senior leader Raghav Chadha congratulated Mann on Twitter. "Wishing my Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann Ji a very happy and blessed married life ahead. I wish them both a lifetime of love, respect and companionship," Bains said. Arora congratulated Mann for starting married life and wished "both a life full of happiness, joy, love, prosperity, health and companionship. May the almighty shower His blessings on both of you". Senior AAP leader Raghav Chadha gave his best wishes to Mann and his would-be wife. "Best wishes to my 'vadde veer' (elder brother) Mann Saab and Dr Gurpreet Kaur for a happy and blessed married life," tweeted Chadha, who is a Rajya Sabha MP. Punjab Congress president Amarinder Singh Raja Warring also congratulated Mann as he starts a "new chapter in his life". "My heartiest congratulations to the CM Bhagwant Mann Ji as he starts a new chapter in his life tomorrow. Best wishes for a happy and blissful married life ahead," he tweeted. -PTC News
