File Photo: BJP Leader Subramanian Swamy
BJP leader Subramanian Swamy today found himself in an awkward situation while presiding over a wedding in Tirunelveli in Tamil Nadu when he inadvertently appeared to be on the verge of tying the
mangalsutra instead of handing it over to the groom.
Dr Swamy was presiding over the wedding of a party colleague at a temple when the faux pas occurred.
Quick on her feet, his party colleague Chandralekha made a timely intervention and prodded Dr Swamy to give the
mangalsutra to the groom.
Rectifying the situation, Dr Swamy, repentantly smiling, handed over the
mangalsutra to the groom, who duly tied it around the bride's neck.
