Smt Usha Thakur,
Social Worker
The 58 year-old resident of Sector-31, Usha is the daughter of famous TV anchor Shiv Sagar Mishra and grand daughter of great Hindi poet Ramdhari Singh Dinkar. In her sphere of social activism, Usha had blown the lid on the infamous Nithari killings and exposed the Noida auto loan scam.
Usha was the first lady who exposed the gruesome killings of Nithari. In January 2006, the Rimpa Halder missing case was reported and then parents of other missing children started coming to Usha's home for help. When she lodged a police complaint on behalf of Rimpa Haldar's mother only then the Noida police started searching for missing children and the entire racket came to light.
Usha has been attacked a number of times by anti- social elements. But she never felt the need to step back and take it easy in life. Perhaps this is what is making her more popular day by day. |
