Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and Biju Janata Dal (BJD) MP Pinaki Misra have reportedly married in a quiet overseas ceremony, marking a union between two prominent Lok Sabha members.
The wedding took place on May 3 in Berlin, Germany.
A photo obtained by India Today TV shows Mahua Moitra dressed in traditional Indian attire, adorned with elaborate gold jewellery, indicating a small but elegant ceremony.
Moitra, born on October 12, 1974, in Assam, began her professional journey as an investment banker before entering politics. She joined the Trinamool Congress in 2010 and has since risen to national prominence. First elected to the Lok Sabha in 2019 from Krishnanagar, West Bengal, she secured re-election in 2024. Moitra is well known for her powerful speeches in Parliament, especially one where she warned of the “seven signs of fascism.”
Pinaki Misra, born on October 23, 1959, in Puri, Odisha, is a senior advocate and seasoned parliamentarian. An alumnus of St. Stephen’s College and the Faculty of Law, University of Delhi, Misra began his political career with the Indian National Congress, winning the Puri seat in 1996. He later joined the Biju Janata Dal and has been a key figure in Odisha politics, securing victories in the 2009, 2014, and 2019 general elections.
The marriage of the two influential leaders from different political backgrounds has attracted public attention, though both have kept the event low-profile and away from the political spotlight.
