Rahul Mahajan, son of late BJP leader Pramod Mahajan, and his estranged wife Shweta were on Friday granted divorce by a local court.
District and Session Judge Ramendra Jain granted them divorce after both parties mutually agreed on the move.
“It had been mutually decided by both the parties to seek divorce for their benefits,” their advocates told reporters in Gurgaon.
Rahul and Shweta, who completed their course in flying together abroad, married on August 29, 2006.
Earlier, Shweta appeared before a court in Gurgaon on December 13, 2007 and sought divorce by mutual consent as per section 13(B) of the Hindu Marriage Act.
However, the court said that consent would only be granted when both parties appear in court.
