Hardik Patel Family

Gujarat Patidar leader Hardik Patel got married to his childhood friend Kinjal Parikh in a traditional ceremony today. Their wedding took place in Gujarat's Surendranagar. A picture from the ceremony shows the couple taking 'pheras' as family members shower flowers on them.

A day after 22-year-old Hardik Patel walked out of prison, nine months after he was jailed for sedition in Gujarat jail, he arrived in his hometown Viramgam today to a rousing welcome from family and community members.

Patel quota leader Hardik Patel's family was put under house arrest and seven women from the community were detained today for sloganeering and demanding his immediate release.

With Gujarat government not heeding to the Patels' demand for OBC status, at least 500 families of the community have threatened to leave Hinduism and convert to another religion for getting benefits of reservation in jobs and education.

The Gujarat CID is expected to submit a progress report to the High Court today on the death of 32-year-old Shwetang Patel, whose family alleges he died in police custody last Tuesday in Ahmedabad, as violence gripped the city after the brief detention of politician Hardik Patel.

Hardik Patel, the face of the Patels' stir for quota in Gujarat, today gave a 48-hour deadline for compensation for the families of nine people who died in last week's protests in the state, saying if it is not done, there will be "an announcement from Surat."

The Gujarat High Court has ordered an investigation by the state's CID into the death of a 32-year-old man, Shwetang Patel, whose family alleges he died in police custody on Tuesday in Ahmedabad, as violence gripped the city after the brief detention of politician Hardik Patel.
