Leaders from across the political spectrum gathered in the national capital on Tuesday to participate in the wedding reception of Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra and former Biju Janata Dal (BJD) MP Pinaki Misra. The event at Hotel Lalit came a little over two months after the couple got married at a private ceremony in Germany on May 30.
At the Delhi reception, Ms Moitra was spotted in a red saree with golden embroidery and traditional gold jewellery. Mr Misra was dressed in a classic white traditional outfit with a red embroidered border.
Photos shared on social media showed Ms Moitra and Mr Misra greeting attendees and receiving blessings from colleagues and friends.
Congress leader Sonia Gandhi was seated at the dinner table with Rajya Sabha member Ranjeet Ranjan, among others.
Samajwadi Party leader and former Uttar Pradesh minister Virendra Singh, who represents Chandauli in the Lok Sabha, posted on X, "Attended the reception of TMC MP Mahua Moitra ji and former MP Pinaki Misra ji at Hotel Lalit. I wish them a happy married life."
