Engagement Hosted at Shangri-La Hotel
The engagement and sangeet were hosted at the luxurious Shangri-La Hotel in New Delhi. The event remained a tightly guarded, media-free celebration, attended only by immediate family and close acquaintances.
Among the select guests was Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, a long-time colleague and friend of Kejriwal. Mann was seen interacting with the couple and extending his blessings.
Who is Harshita Kejriwal?
Harshita, 29, is the elder of the two children of Arvind and Sunita Kejriwal. An alumna of IIT Delhi, she has largely kept a low profile, away from political limelight. Her fiancé, Sambhav Jain, is a project management consultant based in the private sector.
Sources close to the family shared that the match was arranged with the consent and support of both families and that the couple had been engaged in private for some time before Thursday’s formal ceremony.
Wedding Set for April 18
The couple is scheduled to marry on April 18, 2025, in a traditional wedding ceremony at Kapurthala House — a venue known for hosting dignitaries and high-profile weddings. Invitations are expected to be limited again, with the family maintaining privacy around the proceedings.
Though the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leadership has not issued an official statement about the engagement, insiders say several party leaders and well-wishers are expected to be part of the wedding next year.
