Sukhbir Singh Badal decided to marry his daughter

The daughter of Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal, Harkirat Kaur Badal, is set to tie the knot in February next year, according to information shared by former Akali leader Virsa Singh Valtoha.

Valtoha, who recently parted ways with the Akali Dal, told the media that wedding preparations are already underway for the much-anticipated family event. Sources close to the Badal family confirmed that Harkirat Kaur’s marriage has been fixed with an international businessman who originally hails from Punjab’s Doaba region.

While the Akali Dal leadership has not officially commented on the development, the news has drawn public attention given the Badal family’s longstanding political legacy in Punjab. Observers say the occasion may also serve as a reunion point for senior Akali leaders, amid ongoing internal party tensions.

The Badal family, which has been central to Punjab’s political landscape for decades, has often balanced political responsibilities with traditional family ties. Harkirat Kaur’s upcoming wedding is expected to be attended by top political and religious dignitaries from across India and the Punjabi diaspora.
