The woman police officer of Syana circle in district Bulandshahar, Shreshtha Thakur, who stood up against local BJP leaders and sent five of them to jail for creating obstacles in discharging government duties, was transferred to Bahraich on Saturday. The local leaders had linked it with their pride and pressed the high command to initiate action against Thakur. He also charged the cop with using objectionable language against CM Yogi Adityanath and other party leaders. The man introduced himself as BJP leader Pramod Kumar — his wife is a member of jila panchayat in Bulandshahar. An altercation took place between Kumar and Thakur and the former soon telephoned BJP leaders, who arrived there and objected to the action of police.
