The First Catholic Sarpanch

This is Mr. Kantibhai Ranchodbhai Macwan. The first Catholic Sarpanch of Bhumel.(Sarpanch is the head of an Indian village).

Last week the Sarpanch of Bhumel(Rupadiben Darbar) passed away. She was elected as a sarpacnch of Bhumel. Mr.Kantibhai Ranchodbhai Macwan was a first catholic deputy Sarpanch of Bhumel. After the death of the former Sarpanch, Mr.Kantibhai is given the charge of Sarpanch by Bhumel Panchayat body and TDO (Taluka Development officer) on 06-March-2010. He is our first Catholic Sarpanch of the village till next election.

Mr.Kantibhai joined the Bhumel Panchayat body as a deputy Sarpanch on 23-01-2007. The Sarpanch was working in AMUL Dairy as a supervisor in Anand in Gujarat. He retired on 20-11-2008 and today he is at the service of Bhumelians to make vibrant village of Gujarat. He is also a very active member of parish council of Vadtal church.

Let us congratulate the pride of our Christian society.

May God give him the wisdom and strength to work for people so that even in next election all people select him as Sarpanch.
