'Lady Singham' of UP's Bulandshahar, Shrestha Thakur who took on BJP leader transferred

The woman police officer of Syana circle in Uttar Pradesh’s Bulandshahar district, Shrestha Thakur who fined BJP leader has been transferred to Bahraich on Saturday.

The development comes days after Shrestha Thakur- famously known as “Lady Singham” had fined a BJP supported Zilla Panchayat member Pramod Lodhi for not wearing a helmet and seized his bike.

Thakur has also sent five local BJP leaders to jail for creating obstacles in performing government duties.

Earlier last week, a delegation of 11 MLAs and MP met with UP CM Yogi Adityanath over the issue. And within days she was transferred.

The Prime Minister Narendra Modi had in past advised MPs of the Uttar Pradesh not to put unnecessary pressure on the police department of the state.

The PM had said they must keep themselves away from the process of transfer and posting as good governance is BJP's main motive.

However, it seems PM's advice has fallen on deaf ears.
