Wedding during IPL season
According to sources close to the couple, the decision to marry was made during an Indian Premier League (IPL) match earlier this year, which both Ghosh and Majumdar attended together. The wedding proposal reportedly came from the bride’s side, and Ghosh’s mother also encouraged him to consider marriage.
Who is Rinku Majumdar?
Rinku Majumdar is associated with the BJP’s North Kolkata suburban district women’s wing. She resides in New Town and was previously married. She has a 25-year-old son who works in the IT sector in Salt Lake. Her political connection with Dilip Ghosh began during her involvement in party activities, and the relationship gradually deepened over time.
A mother’s wish fulfilled
Sources close to Ghosh revealed that his decision to marry was largely influenced by his mother’s wishes. Reportedly, his mother had expressed concern for his well-being, asking, “Who will take care of you after I am gone?” These emotional words are said to have touched Ghosh and played a major role in his decision to marry.
Dilip Ghosh has held several key positions in the BJP, including serving as the President of the West Bengal BJP and being elected as a Member of Parliament from the Medinipur Lok Sabha constituency.
