The 2015 IAS topper and the runner up, who caught nation’s imagination with their beautiful love story, were seen strolling in and around the Mughal-era monuments. The couple had got married in April this year. Their wedding reception was attended by Vice-President Venkaiah Naidu, Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan and Union Minister Ravi Shankar Prasad. 

Dabi posted her cool photos and videos on her Instagram account.

Many said that though Khan lost out to Dabi in the UPSC race, but at the end he won her heart. 

‘Uske liye pehli nazar mein pyaar ho gaya (For him, it was love at first sight),’ Dabi had said about Khan soon after they announced their marriage plans. 

The two met during the 2016 felicitation ceremony in North Block’s DoPT office and by the evening he was knocking at her door. Dabi had said that she was floored by his wit and charm, and added: “I thank Aamir every day for his perseverance. He is a wonderful person. We would be tying the knot very soon.”

However, the couple also faced some criticism from those who thought that they shouldn’t get married as they both belong to different religion.

‘I must admit that I get very disturbed when I read stuff about us. We have stopped googling our names and reading news about ourselves. I think it is a small price to pay for being in the public eye,’ Dabi had said during a media interaction in 2016.

When asked how she felt about being an icon for Dalits, she said: “I don't think I can be an icon yet because I am yet to do something concrete. By hard work, God's grace and some luck, I managed to top an exam. But at the end of the day it is just an exam and I still have a long way to go. I still have to go on the field and do something. I still have to prove myself. I know that there is so much social stigma attached to being a Dalit that it is unthinkable for many Dalit students that they can ever top the exam. So if I can encourage any student to do better, I think it is wonderful.”
