"My son was married to Andleep Zahra who is the daughter of Rana Yasmin Zaidi. The marriage was done on October 18 at 9 pm. In Pakistan, all their relatives had participated in the marriage. In Jaunpur my friends, staff, and my elder brother participated in the marriage," he further said.
Due to unavilability of Visa to travel to Pakistan and the illness of the bride's mother the marriage was conducted online.
"The bride's mother Rana Yasmin Zaidi fell sick. We had to conduct the marriage online as we did not get a visa to travel to Pakistan. We are requesting PM Modi to ease the process of obtaining the visa," he further said.
