This act was more than ceremonial. Ms. Rameshan, who comes from a middle-class background and whose in-laws are from a farming family in Bihar, said that agricultural practices—especially paddy plantation—have fascinated her since childhood. Her participation during the ongoing monsoon season highlighted a deep respect for Jharkhand’s cultural traditions and rural identity.

The ‘Dhanrapani’ ritual involves prayers for a good harvest, folk music, and a communal spirit. The SP observed all these traditions sincerely, conveying a powerful social message—that no matter the rank or uniform, it is vital to stay rooted in one’s culture. Her initiative has won the admiration of the local community, reinforcing trust between the administration and the people.

Ms. Rameshan’s action is not just symbolic; it resonates with her image as an officer who values humanity, simplicity, and cultural ties. Having earlier celebrated Chhath festival with equal sincerity, she continues to strengthen the bond between governance and grassroots traditions.

Who is IPS Rishma Rameshan?

Born in Kerala, Ms. Rishma Rameshan completed her schooling in her home state. She is married to Mr. Anjani Anjan, a Jharkhand cadre IPS officer originally from Patna, Bihar. Following her marriage, Ms. Rameshan changed her cadre to Jharkhand in 2020. She is currently serving as the SP of Palamu and has the distinction of being the district’s first woman SP. Before this, she served as the Rural SP in Dhanbad. Her grounded approach to policing and cultural connection has made her a beloved figure among the residents of Palamu.
