I think Gauri and Ganga are the only ones who he chose himself. Anandi was wedded to him in childhood when he knew nothing. Sanchi herself came after him.
Gauri and Jagya were perfect for each other but both lost each other. And their families didn't do anything to ensure their relationship worked. They were happy till the time families did not meddle in their matters.
It's sad both got frustrated and couldn't make it work.
Ganga is perfect for him in the sense she combines gentleness of Anandi and firmness of Gauri plus has a maturity of her own due to experiences and age. She is the wisest female character in this show in ages. I don't think she is only an emergency case for Jagya. They get along well both with each other and together with Mannu.
Ganga is also perfect because there are no issues of moral or legal legitimacy attached to her relationship with Jagya unlike Gauri (illegal marriage), Anandi (child marriage) and Sanchi (forced, based on assumptions and odd marrying ex wife's SIL).
Ganga also doesn't have a debilitating factor like history of past trauma with Singhs which was there in Gauri's case and had played a major role in the drama that ensued between her and Singhs.
So all factors considered, Ganga is the best choice.
