Charu Nigam is a
2013 batch Indian Police Service Officer of Uttar Pradesh cader. She is also
termed as ‘Lady Singham’ for her courageous performance in terror ridden
Chambal region of Jhansi and now in the crime prone belt of Poorvanchal. She is
being seen as a beacon of hope for millions of girls in UP who on a daily basis
has to bear with eve teaching and stalking. She is currently posted in
Gorakhpur, the home ground of UP CM Yogi Adityanath and spearheading the
challenge of freeing the roads and girls educational institutes from the
scourge of stalking. However, she had recently been misbehaved in full public view by a senior BJP MLA from Gorakhpur who happened to be also a close confidante of Yogi Adityanath.
Profile of Charu Nigam
Charu Nigam was
born in Agra, Uttar Pradesh. However, her family soon shifted to New Delhi
because her father Late M. S. Nigam got job with DDA as an Engineer. She did
her schooling from New Delhi. Her family is quite passionate about education.
Her father who did engineering from IIT Roorkey never made any difference
between his son and daughter when it comes to providing education. Both Charu
and her brother Vikas Nigam cracked IIT.
Apart from
engineering, Charu’s father was also expecting her to become an IAS officer.
Charu Nigam was
always a sort of challenging personality. She has this habit of challenging the
status quo, challenging the idea of being in the comfort zone, challenging the
social status of an IITian in India. This revolt kept her hungry for doing
something different. But, it has also ensured that she got poor ranking in IIT.
She got degree with 6.2 CGPA – a very poor score for such a bright student.
Then, again, challenging the status quo starts to haunt her. She decided not to
work with Software/IT firms whatsoever fat the salary at hand might be. She was
looking for a position as a business analyst. But, that couldn’t happen. It is
quite surprising that Charu couldn’t get a decent job after completing her B.
Tech from IIT.
Frustrated and
wanting to think about her life away from her parents, Charu joined ICFAI
Technical University in Dehradoon. Fortunately, she left ICFAI just after three
months and decided to prepare for Civil Services.
But, there was
more to her life. She got rejection from her boyfriend because of her caste.
And, then she lost her father. These two episodes created a sort of havoc for
her. She got into depression and couldn’t crack Civil Services.
She could crack
UPSC Civil Services in 2013 and got All India Rank of 586. She got IPS with UP
Cader.
After completing
her training in Hyderabad, Charu joined UP Police as ASP. Her first posting was
in Jhansi where she won heart of public with dare devil attitude. The big land
and mine mafia in the region used to fear by her name. Few months later, she
was transferred to Gorakhpur. Here also, she is being applauded for her no
nonsense policing.
Boyfriend of Charu Nigam
Charu Nigam had
a breakup which was also a reason behind her depression. The reason behind
breakup was her caste.
Charu is soon
going to be married. She just said that the choice of her spouse will be made
by her mother and he will be from UP.
