In January 2020, President Ram Nath Kovind intervened on behalf of a couple whose wedding arrangements were abruptly interrupted. Ashley Hall, a US-based bride, had been told when she arrived that the five-star hotel in Kochi was being set aside for the President’s protection. Without a location, Hall posted a need for help on Twitter.
She was surprised by the Rashtrapati Bhavan’s response, which provided a solution and made sure the wedding proceeded according to schedule.
But in a historic first, the esteemed institution will now celebrate a new chapter in its history by hosting the wedding of a serving officer.
