Haryana deputy chief minister Dushyant Chautala was also seen dancing to drum beats when his younger brother Digvijay’s baraat left their Asola farmhouse in Delhi.
Digvijay’s estranged uncle and INLD leader Abhay Singh Chautala and his grandfather OP Chautala skipped the wedding programme. The duo had not taken part in pre-wedding either. During his yatra in Palwal, INLD leader Abhay Singh Chautala had stated that the marriage function was fixed after he had announced his yatra’s schedule and people’s plight is more important than Digvijay’s marriage functions for him.
The reception is slated to be held in New Delhi on March 23. President Droupadi Murmu, vice-president Jagdeep Dhankar, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, his cabinet colleagues, and others are expected to attend the reception. Digvijay has also invited Bollywood stars like Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, singer Kailash Kher, Honey Singh, Guru Randhawa and others.
