<p>“I have come here to say sorry to Fiza. Whether she forgives me or not depends on her,” Chand, accompanied by Fiza, told reporters at the latter’s residence.<br /><br />“I want to live with her. I love her more than ever,” Chand said without batting an eyelid while adding that Fiza was his wife. <br /><br />When asked about his divorce with Fiza and his statement that he had nothing to do with her any longer, Chand said: “The divorce sent through SMS was not valid.”<br /><br />Looking resplendent in a red-colour salwar-kameez, Fiza, who looked cheerful, said she would think about the latest turn in their relationship. “Whatever my elders, especially my mother decides, I will obey them”, she said. However, she said she was convinced with Chand’s explanation that he was forced to leave her house by his family members.<br /><br />When asked if he would stay with Fiza today, Chand, looking at Fiza, said: “I came as a guest to meet her and ask for forgiveness. If she asks me to stay over, I will stay.” Fiza smiled back.<br /><br />The two had got married last year after remaining incommunicado for nearly two months. <br />After emerging from hibernation, Chander Mohan, the then deputy chief minister of Haryana, announced he had converted to Islam and adopted a new name, Chand Mohammed, to marry Anuradha Bali, a legal officer in the Haryana government, who had assumed the name, Fiza Mohammed. Chand was dismissed from the cabinet, and Fiza lost her job for remaining absent without intimation.<br /><br />The honeymoon lasted barely a month when Chand disappeared from Fiza’s house and went abroad.<br /></p>
