This is a unique record created by the 2016 batch of 156 IAS officers. There are six married couple among them. There are also cases an officer marrying an officer from junior batch, while another officer marrying officer from the senior batch.
These couple got married while training at the Lal Bahadur Shastri National Academy of Administration in Mussoorie. The date from the Department of Personnel and Training reveal that as many as 52 IAS officers from various batches got married to a fellow officer since 2017.
However, such marital bliss become headache to the government, as it has to redo the elaborate exercise of allocating cadres to these IAS couples. Government has to allocate cadre in such a way that a couple works in the same state.
