Veteran Congress leader and former Andhra Pradesh Governor, N D Tewari who tied the knot with the mother of his biological son Rohit Shekhar on May 14 last, got his marriage registered at the registry office here.

The 89-year-old leader, who arrived at the registry office supported by his wife Ujjwala Sharma and staff members, completed all formalities related to the marriage to give it a legal status.

Tewari had surprised everyone by marrying Sharma at a simple ceremony at his Mall Avenue residence here.
