Bhubaneswar, May 5: Odisha cadre IAS officers Chanchal Rana and Ananya Das have already got married and the media glare has now focused on Puri district collector Samarth Verma and Rayagada district collector Swadha Dev Singh who are going to enter the wedding lock soon.
The celebrated IAS officers are likely to exchange the wedding vows in a grand affair at Verma’s native place in Varanasi of Uttar Pradesh on May 15.
This is the second marriage for both the IAS officers.
Earlier, Swadha Dev Singh was married to Bolangir Collector Chanchal Rana. On the other hand, Verma is also separated from his first wife.
Verma will reportedly be going on leave after Rath Yatra preparatory meet. He has also invited a few sevayats and senior officials for his marriage. Similarly, Rayagada Collector Swadha Dev Singh is also on leave from May 7.
However, the two IAS officers have remained tight-lipped about the impending marriage.
Samarth had earlier married Suchi Singh, an Indian Railways Service officer, while Swadha was married to Bolangir Collector Chanchal Rana who recently married Sambalpur Collector Ananya Das.
On the other hand, Ananya Das was earlier married to Koraput Collector Abdaal M. Akhtar. Of late, the divorce and subsequent second marriages of Odisha cadre IAS officers have been the talk of the town and grabbing headlines.
