Lucknow, Jul 2: The lady cop, who had taken on the BJP leaders and fined one of them for not wearing helmet in Uttar Pradesh's Bulandshahar town, about 500 kilometres from here, was shunted out of the district allegedly on the demand of the local unit of the saffron party.ladycop

Shreshtha Thakur, the circle officer (CO) of Syana in Bulandshahar, was on Saturday night transferred to Baharaich, according to the official sources here.

“Got transfer to Bahraich, it’s Nepal border, don’t worry my friends I am happy ..I accept it as a reward for my good work. U all are invited to Bahraich,” said Thakur on her Facebook page. Over 200 police officers had been transferred in the reshuffle on Saturday.

Sources in the BJP here said that the local leader from Bulandshahar had taken up the incident with the state party president and deputy chief minister Keshav Prasad Maurya.

''The local leaders said that the lady cop had humiliated them....they had made it a prestige issue,'' said a senior state BJP leader here. A home department official, however, termed the transfer a routine one.

BJP leaders had allegedly misbehaved with Thakur after the cops challaned the vehicle of a district panchayat member and party leader Pramod Lodhi for not being in possession of valid documents and not wearing helmet a week back.

Reports said that hundreds of BJP workers, who were led by local leaders, surrounded the lady officer and misbehaved with her. They also allegedly forcibly got Pramod released from the police custody inside the district court premises.
