Gujarat CM shifts event venue to ensure smooth conduct of wedding in Jamnagar

Ahmedabad, November 23. Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel directed a last-minute change in the venue of his scheduled public event in Jamnagar to ensure that a family could solemnize their daughter's wedding without any disruption. Officials provided this information on Sunday regarding the humanitarian gesture shown by the state leadership.

A family residing in Jamnagar had booked the City Town Hall for the wedding of Sanjana Parmar on November 23. While preparations for the ceremony were already underway, the family learned that the Chief Minister was scheduled to visit the city on November 24 and hold a public programme at the same venue. As per agency report, security arrangements for the Chief Minister's visit had already commenced, causing anxiety within the family that restricted access around the Town Hall, police deployment, and activities related to the official event might affect the wedding ceremony.

According to the family, their concerns were conveyed to the Chief Minister's Office, prompting an immediate response from the state leader. Officials stated that Patel instructed his team to instantly shift the programme to another location, emphasizing that the family's concern should be regarded as their own concern.

Brijesh Parmar, the uncle of the bride, mentioned that the Chief Minister personally contacted the family. He recounted that Patel told them not to worry at all and to proceed with the wedding at the Town Hall as planned, assuring them that the official event venue would be changed. Parmar noted that finding a new location during the busy wedding season would have been nearly impossible and the intervention lifted a huge burden off the family, allowing them to finally sleep peacefully after receiving the call. Local officials confirmed the relocation of the Chief Minister's programme without delay, and the wedding was solemnized as per the schedule.
