The government is expected to issue the GO before the 85th death anniversary of Komaram Bheem, to be observed at the historic Jodeghat on October 7. District officials have already gathered information on Komaram Bheem’s life and dates from his grandson, Komaram Sonerao, and from community elders familiar with his struggle. Bheem was born in Routesankepalli in present-day Asifabad mandal, before moving with his family to Surdapur village in Kerameri mandal. He confirmed that the government is likely to release the order before the 85th death anniversary. A Komaram Bheem Vardhanti Utsava Committee will soon be constituted with leaders of Adivasi organisations, and necessary works will be coordinated under departments including panchayat raj, tribal welfare, and revenue.
