LAHORE – The son of a leader from India’s ruling party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), has married a Pakistani girl in an online nikkah ceremony.
Mohammad Abbas Haider, son of BJP corporator Tahseen Shahid, wed Andleep Zahra during a ceremony held online because he was unable to obtain a visa amid ongoing political tensions between the two countries. The urgency for the online ceremony was also influenced by the deteriorating health of the bride’s mother, who had been admitted to the ICU of a hospital.
