Married Life, Spouse & More
It makes me feel immensely proud when I see IPS Ankita and her husband Vivekananda Shukla (Hindi: विवेकानंद शुक्ला).
Both of them have devoted their lives to the country. Sharma is in the police while Shukla is a Major in the Army.
Their chemistry is beyond perfect. Ankita was preparing for the UPSC exam when she got married.
Two years after the wedding she was able to crack the examination. When Vivekananda came to know about this he was very happy.
In an interview, he admitted that this news made him happier than when he got to know about his own selection in the army.

Controversy with Congress MLA
Ankita had an argument with the Minister of Legislative Assembly, Shakuntala Sahu at Kasdol’s Baluda Bazar. When I researched about this matter it came to my knowledge that:
Sahu was protesting along with some factory workers. The protest was about an accident in which a worker had lost his life. Demands were made for compensation money.
Just as these requests were met, the relatives of that worker left. But Shakuntala refused to leave and carried on with the protest.
When Ankita confronted her, Sahu was caught on camera threatening Sharma and telling her to back off.
Her exact words were Behave well, otherwise, I will show you your status (ठीक से रहो वर्ना औकात दिखा दुंगी). Even though this made Sharma furious she protected her honor gracefully.
