Will PM Modi attend Anant Ambani-Radhika Merchant wedding in Mumbai? Check who all will grace the ceremony

With several high-profile personalities and politicians arriving in Mumbai for Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant's wedding ceremony on July 12, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is also likely to grace the wedding ceremony.

Anant Ambani will tie the knot with Radhika Merchant, daughter of pharma tycoons Viren and Shaila Merchant, at a ceremony which will take place at Jio World Convention Center in Mumbai.

Though it is not confirmed how long the Prime Minister will stay, reports said that Modi will bless the couple and leave.

Modi is likely to make a fleeting appearance.

On Saturday, July 13, the Prime Minister is also going to perform a ground-breaking ceremony and inaugurate several projects at 5.30 pm in Mumbai. Modi will also inaugurate the third-phase of Goregoan-Mulund Link Road from the ceremony at NESCO Centre in Goregoan.
