In June 2023, Jyoti's husband, Alok Maurya, accused her of cheating on him with a man named Manish Dubey, who works as a Home Guard Commandant in Ghaziabad. He claimed that Manish's wife informed him about their affair in 2020. According to him, Jyoti and Manish first met on Facebook. When he confronted Jyoti about the affair, she denied it and asked for proof. He mentioned that he followed Jyoti to Lucknow and saw her meeting Manish there. He alleged that they spent the night together at a hotel called Myriad, which was booked by Manish. The next morning, when he confronted Jyoti, she confessed to loving Manish. He further claimed that Jyoti threatened him and his family with false charges, including rape allegations.
He released WhatsApp chat messages between Jyoti and Manish as evidence of their intimacy. He also showed a diary that he claimed belonged to Jyoti, which allegedly documented bribes she had taken during her time as an SDM. He sought help from Yogi Adityanath, the Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, and stated that he had filed a complaint with the police in April 2023, but no action was taken against Jyoti. He also accused Jyoti of conspiring with Manish to kill him. Jyoti responded to these allegations by maintaining her innocence and stating that she would address them in court.
She retaliated by filing an FIR against her husband and his family members for harassment related to dowry. The Director General of Home Guards, B. K. Maurya, ordered an investigation into the matter. There were rumors of Jyoti's suspension from her post, but this information could not be verified.
