Shrimant Santosh Surpam named BJP Scheduled Tribe Morcha state member from Gadchiroli

Gadchiroli: Shrimant Santosh Surpam has been appointed state member of the Bharatiya Janata Party's Scheduled Tribe Morcha, with the aim of expanding the Morcha's organisation. Morcha state president and former MLA Dr Deorao Holi felicitated him by handing over the official appointment letter. The appointment has generated enthusiasm among BJP workers in Gadchiroli district.

Surpam has been given an important responsibility as state member. For the all-round development of the Scheduled Tribe community, he is to place the community's various questions, problems and pending demands effectively before the government and through the organisation. The responsibility also includes bringing community members into the organisation, taking the party's policies and ideology down to the general public, and making the organisation's work wider and stronger.

Gadchiroli is a tribal-majority district, where questions related to the social, educational, economic and development needs of the Scheduled Tribe community carry particular weight. With the chance to work at the state level, the community's concerns will get the organisation's platform, and the appointment is being seen as significant for that reason. He will have to focus on understanding the difficulties of community members and raising them at the right forum, conveying information about the government's various schemes and works to the community, and expanding public outreach through the organisation.

While handing over the letter, Dr Holi wished Surpam well for the organisational journey ahead. He expressed the hope that Surpam would discharge the responsibility given by the party and the organisation with dedication, honesty and full capability. He also hoped Surpam would keep working in the community's interest and contribute to strengthening the party organisation further.

On the occasion, gratitude was expressed to BJP district president Prof. Ramesh Barsagade, Gadchiroli MLA Dr Milind Narote, Dr Nitin Kodwate, former MLA Dr Namdeo Usendi, MLA Krishna Gajbe, BJP general secretary Prakash Gedam and Dr Chanda Kodwate.

Following the appointment, Surpam is receiving congratulations from BJP office-bearers, workers, community members and dignitaries from various fields. His selection as state member is being welcomed at every level. It is hoped that he will play an active role in raising the issues of the Scheduled Tribe community and in expanding the party organisation in the coming period.
