Suguna’s journey is not just a personal triumph but a beacon of hope for the Adivasi community. As a member of the Raj Gond tribe, she has been at the forefront of advocating for tribal rights, fighting against injustices, and striving for the upliftment of her community.

Athram Suguna, a human rights activist and former teacher, has made history by becoming the first Adivasi woman to contest in the Adilabad parliamentary constituency. She is representing the Congress party in a significant move for tribal representation in politics. Suguna, who hails from the Raj Gond tribe, has been a vocal advocate for Adivasi rights and has a strong background in education and activism.

Her candidacy is a milestone for the Adivasi community and highlights the increasing involvement of indigenous women in Indian politics. This development is particularly noteworthy in the tribal-heartland of Adilabad, where Suguna’s campaign is expected to address issues such as land rights, education, and healthcare for Adivasis.

 

Suguna’s journey to this point has been marked by her resilience in the face of challenges, including overcoming child marriage and fighting for human rights. Her story is an inspiration to many and underscores the importance of representation and empowerment of marginalized communities in the democratic process.
