Taking to Twitter, AAP convenor and Delhi CM wrote in a tweet in Hindi, “Wishing Bhagwant Mann and Gurpreet Bhabhi a very happy marriage. May God keep you both happy and give you all the happiness in the world,” Kejriwal said.

Sharing a picture with the bride and groom, AAP MP Raghav Chadha wished the couple a “happy and blessed married life.” Earlier, he told the mediapersons that Mann’s mother is the happiest as she saw her son resettling in life.

While Mann chose a yellow turban with 'kalgi' and a gold-coloured kurta pyjama for his wedding, Kaur donned a red-coloured dress.

Mann (48) has become the first chief minister of Punjab to get married while in office. His bride Dr Gurpreet Kaur hails from Pehowa in Haryana's Kurukshetra. This is Mann's second marriage. He and his first wife separated in 2015 and have two children-- daughter Seerat Kaur (21) and son Dilshan (17).

Gurpreet Kaur has two elder sisters who are settled abroad. Kaur completed her MBBS from a private university in Haryana in 2018, as per PTI.

The low-key wedding was attended by Mann's mother and sister and a few other guests including Kejriwal and his family and Raghav Chadha.
