MP CM Mohan Yadavs son Dr Abhimanyu marries at Ujjain mass wedding ceremony| Who is he?

New Delhi: The weddings of the children of eminent politicians in our country are generally star-studded affairs, but seldom do they come into the news for a mass ritual. It happened in Madhya Pradesh, where Chief Minister Mohan Yadav's younger son, Abhimanyu Yadav, got married along with over 21 other couples at a mass wedding ceremony in Ujjain on November 29.

The wedding venue had five ceremonial domes, a 40×100-foot stage, extensive hospitality setups, and 22 individual pavilions. There were around 25,000 guests to witness the unique mass wedding that showed how social and economic differences could be blurred with the approach of inclusivity.

CM Yadav said, "Our beloved son, Dr Abhimanyu, and fortunate daughter-in-law, Dr Ishita, along with 21 newlywed couples, were united in holy matrimony in a grand collective wedding ceremony. On this auspicious occasion, which became a sacred confluence of Sanatan culture, social harmony, and equality, all of you showered the newlywed couples with your priceless blessings, love, and best wishes."

Abhimanyu Yadav is CM Mohan Yadav's younger son. A doctor by profession, he has a Master of Surgery (MS) degree and his wife, Dr Ishita Patel, is an MBBS doctor from Khargone. Several dignitaries, including Madhya Pradesh Governor Mangubhai Patel, Union ministers Jyotiraditya Scindia and Durgadas Uike, Assembly Speaker Narendra Singh Tomar, Baba Ramdev, and Baba Bageshwar attended his wedding, which leaned more towards simplicity.

While Abhimanyu and Ishita arrived at one of the pre-wedding ceremonies in a bullock cart, other grooms entered the wedding venue on horseback, and brides arrived in carriages. The wedding ceremony has been praised by all for its message of inclusion.
