Rekha MishraRPF Officer - Social Services (Maharashtra, India) 2018
REKHA MISHRA – She is one of her kind! As a ‘Railway Protection Force’ officer, from Mumbai –434 children and counting – that’s the number of kids RPF officer, Rekha saved over a span of one year. Out of 1150 children that the Railway Police saved, her contribution came as a monumental achievement.
She has taken upon herself the mantle of a saviour and protector of the runaway, forsaken or trafficked children, who can be found roaming about on various stations. In the process, she has been the Destiny-Changer of hundreds of little ones who, otherwise, were doomed to a wretched and miserable future. Today, she has become an unprecedented example for others to follow!
