Beed (Maharashtra): The recent brutal murder of Santosh Deshmukh, the sarpanch of Massajog village in Parli taluka, Beed district, has left the region shaken. The gruesome killing has tarnished Parli’s reputation, triggering concerns about law and order in the area. In an effort to restore the town’s image and uplift the community’s morale, Global Vikas Trust (GVT) has organized a marathon on March 19, led by fitness icon Milind Soman and GVT head Mayank Gandhi.
The murder of Santosh Deshmukh shocked residents, with reports indicating that he was brutally attacked due to political and local disputes. His death sparked tension in the region, prompting authorities to heighten security measures. The Beed Superintendent of Police and the Collector have been actively monitoring the situation to maintain law and order.
To counteract the negativity surrounding the incident, GVT, an organization that has been working on rural transformation in the area for several years, decided to take action. The upcoming marathon aims to bring positivity, unity and hope back to the people of Parli.
Milind Soman, known for promoting fitness and social causes, has specially flown in for the event to inspire Parli’s youth. A few thousand young participants will join the run alongside Milind Soman, the Beed SP, the Beed Collector and other dignitaries. The marathon will conclude at Krishikul, a rural education and development center.
Event To Boost Morale Among Residents
The event is expected to not only boost morale but also reinforce the message that Parli is a place of growth and unity, not violence and crime. With high-profile participation and enthusiastic youth engagement, the marathon aims to shift focus from the tragedy to the spirit of resilience and transformation.
Authorities are ensuring tight security arrangements for the event, considering the recent tensions in the area. The marathon is being seen as an important step toward restoring normalcy and confidence in Parli’s future.
