Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann, 48, is set to get married to 1993-born Dr Gurpreet Kaur, a resident of Peohwa town of Haryana, in a private ceremony here on Thursday.
Aam Aadmi Party (AAP)’s Punjab unit chief spokesperson Malvinder Kang said that chief minister Mann would tie the nuptial knot with Dr Gurpreet Kaur who belongs to Pehowa, district Kurukshetra (Haryana). She did her MBBS from Maharishi Markandeshwar University at Mullana (district Ambala) in Haryana in 2018.
Stating that it would be a private and simple ceremony, Kang said that the AAP national convener and Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal is likely to attend the ceremony with his family.
This would be Mann’s second marriage after he had separated from his first wife Inderpreet Kaur 2015 who lives abroad. He has two children, daughter Seerat Kaur Mann (21) and son Dilshan Mann (17), from his first wife.
His children had come from the US to attend Mann’s swearing-in ceremony at Khatkar Kalan in March this year.
Meanwhile, Bhagwant Mann's Cabinet colleagues Aman Arora and Harjot Singh Bains congratulated him on Twitter on the occasion.
