Tina Dabi, the Indian Administrative Services (IAS) topper of 2015 tied the knot with Athar Aamir Ul Shafi Khan, the second rank holder in the same examination, in the picturesque locale of Jammu and Kashmir’s Pahalgam on Saturday.

While Dabi belongs to Delhi, Khan is from Jammu and Kashmir. The two did not know each other until they became the IAS toppers in of the country two years ago. Several hardline Hindutva groups had warned Dabi against marrying a Muslim. They had also threatened to attack Khan. Fringe groups even called it a case of so called ‘love jihad’. Some Hindutva outfits also wrote a letter to Dabi’s parents to stop such a thing from taking place.

However, the families of Khan and Dabi had shown green signal to the relationship. Dabi, along with her parents and relatives, arrived in Pahalgam on Friday for the wedding ceremony. After the wedding, the couple drove to Devepora Mattan – Khan’s ancestral village in South Kashmir’s Anantnag.

Love at first sight

Dabi fell in love with Khan soon after they met each other for the first time at the Department of Personnel and Training (DoPT) office in North Block for a felicitation function on May 11, 2015. According to Dabi, it was a love-at-first-sight.

“We met in the morning and by evening Aamir was at my door. It was love at first sight. I thank Khan every day for his perseverance. He is a wonderful person,” she had said. The 2015 IAS topper also said that she was floored with Khan’s wit and charm.

Yogesh....

Please start looking for the CREATOR who created all that exists, (There are many man made gods where people are blindly following without true knowledge of the CREATOR who created all that exists) YOU will get the answer for your and many millions who wonder why more women are REVERTING and accepting to worship the ONE CREATOR which is also mentioned in Vedas NA TASYA PRATIMA ASTI.

STUDY, LEARN, RESEARCH about the ONE GOD in all religion.  IF U are honest in finding UR and our CREATOR, SURELY the CREATOR will guide U to TRUTH and U will recognize the FALSE Gods and FAKE babas and CORRUPt politicians who are corrupting our SOULS by misleading US from the TRUTH... MAY the CREATOR guide those who look for him HONESTLY.
