She also shared the photo in a tweet with a hashtag #NewProfilePic.

Dabi, the UPSC topper and IAS officer of the 2016 batch, married Gawande on Friday in a simple ceremony at Rajasthan’s Jaipur. The couple exchanged garlands as per Buddhist traditions in presence of family and close friends, according to reports.

Visuals showed a portrait of Dalit icon BR Ambedkar in the background as rituals were observed. Dabi was also the first Dalit to top the civil services exam.

A reception party was held on Saturday.

Dabi is currently serving as the Joint Secretary in the Finance Department of Rajasthan, while her husband Gawande who used to work as doctor, is the Director of the Department of Archaeology and Museum, Rajasthan.

Dabi had announced her engagement with Gawande last month with an image on photo sharing app Instagram. "I am wearing the smile you (PradeepGawande) gave me, fiance," she wrote in the caption along with the photo.

Previously, she was married to IAS officer Athar Khan. The couple got divorced in August 2021 after an order passed by a Jaipur court.
