Former SUDA chairman back in BJP
Former chairman of Surat Urban Development Authority SUDA Bhupendrasinh Solanki, who had kicked the Bharatiya Janta Party to join Shanker Singh Vaghela8217;s Rashtriya Janata Party, has returned to the mother party.

Solanki was president of BJP8217;s district youth wing when he parted ways. He was promptly rewarded by Vaghela with the prestigious post of SUDA chairman. But after the RJP was routed in the last Assembly elections, RJP8217;s flock has been dwindling. While former Environment and Technical Education Minister Bhagubhai Patel joined the Congress recently, Solanki becomes the second important man to switch loyalty after the poll debacle.

More than 1000 students and 100 teachers from Valsad, Dangs, and Navsari districts, are expected to take part in the camp, which is to begin from November 29. Lectures on vegetation, kinds of soil, water, forests, wildlife, environment, herbs, soil conservation, non conventional sources of energy, among others, will also be held.
