Jeet Adani, the younger son of billionaire Gautam Adani, married Diva Shah in an intimate ceremony with close family and friends in attendance on Friday.
To mark the occasion, Gautam Adani announced a donation of Rs 10,000 crore, which would be channelled into various social causes.
The larger part of his donation is expected to go into funding massive infrastructure initiatives in healthcare, education and skill development. These initiatives will focus on giving all sections of society access to a network of affordable world-class hospitals and medical colleges, affordable top-tier K-12 schools and advanced global skill academies with assured employability.
The Adani Group chairman also took to social media to share the first pictures from the wedding ceremony, which took place in the afternoon at the Belvedere Club in Ahmedabad's Adani Shantigram township.
"With the blessings of Almighty God, Jeet and Diva tied the sacred knot of marriage today. The wedding took place today in Ahmedabad with traditional rituals and Shubh Mangal Bhaav among loved ones," he wrote on X.
"It was a small and extremely private function, so we could not invite all the well-wishers even if we wanted to, for which I apologise. I sincerely seek blessings and love from all of you for my daughter Diva and Jeet," he further tweeted.
