New Delhi: An IAS officer serving as SDM of Tripura's Kanchanpur, Chandni Chandran, took it to her Twitter handle to recall a heartwarming incident that took place in 2016. Chandni Chandran tweeted a picture of herself from 2016 with her then-boyfriend, who's now her husband on the microblogging website. The picture was accompanied by a story in the caption. 

The IAS officer in the post revealed that the picture (which she had shared) was printed by a newspaper publication on the same day when UPSC 2015 toppers were announced. At that time, she was herself a UPSC aspirant.

In the series of tweets, which was also joined by the photographer who clicked the picture, Chandni Chandra recalled how she feared that the picture would lead to “uncomfortable conversations” at home.

Chandran also added that even though she didn't clear the exam that year but she took the incident as a "sign".

She said, “I took it as a sign that my photo was destined to be there in the paper filled with UPSC toppers and that I can happily walk towards any destination with someone holding an umbrella and looking out for me with love unbound when I take each step.”
