N D Tiwari marries mother of his biological son

We will go for a honeymoon after the elections results are out, says Tiwari's wife

New delhi: Senior Congress leader Narain Dutt Tiwari has formally married his live-in partner Ujjwala Sharma at a private ceremony held at his Mall Avenue residence here on Wednesday night. Mr Tiwari is 88 years old and Ms Ujjwala Sharma is 67 years old. Mr Tiwari’s PRO Rajesh said that the veteran leader suddenly asked them to arrange for a pundit on Wednesday evening and within an hour all arrangements for the wedding were made.

The couple whose relationship has been a subject of controversy for years took the wedding vows according to Hindu tradition in the presence of a few staff members and relatives. Mr Tiwari was dressed in his trademark shervani and churidar while Ms Ujjwala Sharma was dressed in bridal finery. The wedding brings the curtains down on a drama that began two weeks ago when Ms Ujjwala Sharma staged a dharna outside his residence claiming that his staff was not allowing her in.

They have a son Rohit Shekhar who was born out of wedlock. Ms Sharma told reporters on Thursday that her wedding to the Congress leader was a culmination of a long drawn battle. “This is a moment of happiness for me and our families. The wedding was held according to Hindu tradition and we will now get our marriage registered in court too. We also plan to organise a reception later on and then we will go for a honeymoon after the elections results are out,” she said after the ceremony.
