Currently, Dabi is posted in Jaipur as Joint Secretary, Finance (Taxation) Department for the Rajasthan government while Dr Gawande is the Director of Archaeology and Museum Department in the same city. According to reports, the wedding is scheduled to take place on 22 April at a hotel in Jaipur.
Dabi made headlines after she became the first Dalit girl to top the Union Public Service Commission (UPSC) examination in 2015, that too in her first attempt. Her marriage with IAS batchmate Athar Aamir Ul Shafi Khan, led to her personal life dominating headlines. Khan had come second in the 2015 IAS examinations.
Khan and Dabi initially made their relationship official after announcing it on Facebook in 2016 and later got married in 2018. The wedding was attended by top politicians including Vice President Venkaiah Naidu, some Union Ministers and then Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan.
Due to their interfaith marriage, Dabi and Khan had received much flak on social media. Later on, Dabi had countered the backlash and stated that her marriage was above religious divides.
However, the couple officially announced their separation in 2020 and later got divorced in 2021.
