MEDAN - The PDI-P DPP has replaced the chairman of the North Sumatra PDIP DPD, Djarot Saiful Hidayat. Djarot's position is filled by the former Regent of Samosir, Rapidin Simbolon.

The handover of the position was led by the Deputy Secretary-General of the PDIP DPP Utut Adianto, accompanied by other DPP administrators during the reading of the decree on the appointment and replacement of the Chairperson of the North Sumatra PDI-P DPD.

The Rakerdasus was held virtually, which was attended by all North Sumatra PDIP administrators from the DPD office in Medan, Saturday, August 14.

Secretary of the North Sumatra PDIP DPD, Sutarto said, this change was made because Djarot Syaiful Hidayat was assigned to lead the party's school.

"The change of chairman of the party's DPD was carried out with the background that Mas Djarot as the previous DPD chairman, received a new assignment to lead the political education process and party schools nationally, because the party currently prioritizes political education as its main program," said Sutarto.

Sutarto explained that with the withdrawal of Djarot, a new chairman of the party's DPD is needed and is considered to have good abilities to bring the PDI-P in North Sumatra to win the 2024 election.

In the previous management, Rapidin was the Deputy Chair of the North Sumatra PDIP DPD in the field of tourism.

"There is nothing else related to this change, only an assignment to carry out various priority party programs to be implemented immediately," said Sutarto.
