Dilip Ghosh Marries Rinku Majumdar in Private Ceremony | BJP Leader's Personal Milestone

BJP Leader Dilip Ghosh Marries Rinku Majumdar in Intimate Ceremony

Kolkata, April 18, 2025 — In a heartwarming and unexpected turn of events, senior BJP leader and former West Bengal party president, Dilip Ghosh, married fellow party member Rinku Majumdar today in a traditional Vedic ceremony held at his New Town residence near Kolkata. The quiet affair was attended by close family, friends, and key party colleagues, including state president Sukanta Majumdar and MP Samik Bhattacharya.

The ceremony was kept deliberately low-key, in line with the couple’s preference for privacy. Sources close to the family said that only about 30 guests were present, and no formal reception is planned as of now.

A Late but Meaningful Union

Dilip Ghosh, 60, who has been one of the most prominent faces of the BJP in West Bengal, had long been known for his bachelor lifestyle and unwavering focus on his political career. The news of his marriage has come as a surprise to many, especially within political circles.

Rinku Majumdar, 45, a long-time BJP member who has worked in the party’s women’s wing and held various organizational roles, first met Ghosh during party activities in 2021. However, it wasn’t until the 2024 Lok Sabha campaign that the two began spending more time together and developed a bond.

Speaking to the media ahead of the wedding, Majumdar candidly revealed, “Yes, I was the one who proposed to him. I felt he was the most eligible bachelor in Indian politics—not just because he’s respected and hardworking, but because he has a kind heart.”

According to party insiders, Majumdar’s warm and grounded personality played a key role in winning Ghosh’s trust and affection. She reportedly proposed to him in September 2024, and after a few months of thoughtful consideration, Ghosh accepted. His mother, who had expressed her wish to see him married, was reportedly overjoyed by the decision.

Reactions and Political Buzz

While the marriage is seen as a personal milestone for Ghosh, it has also stirred curiosity and admiration among BJP cadres and the general public.

Social media platforms were flooded with congratulatory messages, memes, and light-hearted commentary on the “eligible bachelor” finally settling down. BJP supporters hailed it as a sign of emotional growth and stability in their senior leader’s life, while some political observers speculated on what this might mean for his future role in the party.

Sukanta Majumdar, who attended the wedding, said, “It’s a moment of joy for all of us. Dilip da has been like a rock for the party, and seeing him start this new chapter is truly heartening.”

A Life Beyond Politics?

Though both Ghosh and Majumdar are expected to continue their active involvement in party work, those close to the couple say they may prioritize personal time in the coming months.

“They’re not planning any foreign honeymoon,” said a family friend. “But they do want to take a short spiritual retreat to Varanasi after the elections as a form of thanksgiving.”

Despite the attention surrounding their wedding, the couple remains grounded. When asked by a reporter if marriage would change his life, Ghosh replied with a smile, “Politics has always been my first love. But now, I have a new companion to share the journey with.”
