Only close relatives and a few political leaders attended the marriage that took place at 1030 hrs.Both were divorced earlier. Muhammad Riyas, son of retired IPS officer PM Abdul Khader, has been the National President of the DYFI since 2017. 
 
He also contested the Lok Sabha election from Kozhikode constituency in 2009 and was defeated by MK Raghavan of the Congress by a wafer-thin margin. 
 
Riyas began his political life with the Students Federation of India (SFI). Veena, an IT professional based in Bengaluru, runs her start-up venture, Exalogic Solutions.
