Well-known social activist Anandini Thakoor passed away on Wednesday aged 95. There were several lives she shaped and gave true credence to activism. Where there is a will, there is a way, and where there is a cause, Thakoor would not be far away.

Zoru Bhathena, activist, said, “Thakoor was always willing to listen and understand your point of view. In a world where patience and attention spans are short, this is very significant. She would also eventually agree when she found the arguments were valid.” Overall, Bhathena claimed, “Hats off to this lady. A tall leader in the activism space, all the accolades and admiration are well-deserved as she could get things done.”
