==Reactions on her Death==
* "We all are shattered and yet to come to terms with her death," Sharma's eldest son, Vivek, said.
* Lauding Sharma for her leadership skills, Congress state chief [[Kishore Upadhyaya]] said, "We have been working under her leadership since the past few decades and have never heard her speaking loudly to anyone. Her soothing voice and gentle manner were her biggest strength, and these won her respect not only from party workers but even opposition members."
* Congress spokesman Surendra Kumar termed Sharma's death as a major loss for the ruling party. "She was one of the finest persons one can ever come across. A dedicated party worker for over four decades, she was willing to help everyone round the clock,"
