Mahua Moitra-Pinaki Misra Wedding: Why They Married in Germany?

Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra has tied the knot in Germany. She married former BJD MP Pinaki Misra in a private ceremony. According to available information, the couple got married on May 3.

As reported by the state bureau in Kolkata, Mahua Moitra, the MP from Krishnanagar Lok Sabha constituency in Nadia district, West Bengal, married former Puri MP Pinaki Misra on May 30 at Berlin Palace in Germany. Pinaki, 65, and Mahua, 51, have both been married previously.

While it's not unusual for sportspersons, actors, and actresses to have destination weddings abroad or in historic palaces and forts within India, the marriage of two politicians in such a manner has taken many by surprise. However, sources close to the couple stated that Berlin was chosen to avoid the crowds, rather than as a typical "destination wedding" location.
