Arimbra Bapu

Kodithodi Ahamed alias Bappu (1 May 1936 – 4 July 2014)[1] popularly known as Arimbra Bappu (Malayalam: അരിമ്പ്ര ബാപ്പു) or Bappu (Malayalam: ബാപ്പു) was a politician from the state of Kerala, India belonging to the Indian Union Muslim League party. He served as the first President of Morayur Gram panchayat from year 1969 to 1995, as he was elected continuously, sometimes without opposition. He avoided sound politics after he had a brain stroke, up to the second incident of stroke, which caused his death on 4 July 2014. Several times the party called on him to be the state Minister and MLA; he rejected the opportunities. He worked with many well known politicians of the IUML (C. H. Mohammed Koya and Chakeri Ahammed Kutty), and with the Panakkad Thangal. He was instrumental in raising party membership in Eranad. He served many capacities in the party and the government.[2][3]
