Congress leader Sachin Pilot and Sara Abdullah have separated after nearly two decades of marriage. This was revealed in Pilot’s election affidavit for the upcoming Rajasthan polls as the Congress leader mentioned “divorced” in the column seeking details of the spouse.
This is the first time that Pilot, 46, has disclosed his separation from Sara Abdullah who is the daughter of former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister and National Conference (NC) chief Farooq Abdullah.
In the nomination form, Pilot has written the names of both his children (Aryan Pilot and Vihaan Pilot) as dependents in the affidavit.
In the affidavit, during the last assembly elections (November 2018), Sachin Pilot had written the name of Sara Pilot in the column of wife’s name.
In December 2018, when Sachin Pilot took oath as deputy chief minister, Sara Pilot, both their sons and her father Farooq Abdullah also attended the function.
There was also a buzz about separation of Sachin Pilot and Sara during the 2014 general elections but those were then dismissed as rumours.
