Marsilamat Indari (Hlenderian: ܡܪܣܠܡܬ ܝܢܕܪܝ; November 2, 1972 - present) is a Hlenderian politician who is the current President of the Grand Council of Hlenderia, and serves as head-of-government under King Yendrin Kwarrōth. Indari has also served as Councillor representing the district of Isherrith since 1996, and previously held the offices of Chief of the Interior Bureau and Chair of the legislature's Standing Committee on Mining.
A member of the party Traditionalist Kwarim since 1992, Indari rose quickly in local politics whilst working as chief-of-staff to his mentor and former Councillor for Isherrith, Meril Kwaran. His election to the Grand Council in 1996, at the age of 23, made him the third-youngest person ever elected to that body.
In 2020, upon the retirement of Kasdideresh Mereni, Indari was elected President of the Grand Council. Before his election as President, Indari represented the right wing of his party. Since his accession of head-of-government, however, he has clashed with party members and the far-right Mūni parties over his support of King Yendrin Kwarrōth's more liberal reform proposals.
Early life
Marsilamat Indari was born on November 2, 1972 in Isherrith, the seat of Isher Province. He is of Kwari descent. Indari's father, Demmeranith Indari, worked in a local mill in Isherrith and served as a union steward and as a member of the Hlenderian Workers Party, a source of conflict between father and son. His mother, Hlavesa Indari, was a homemaker who Marsilamat would credit publicly for her "hard work and perseverance" given the family's budget.
Indari began working in local politics as a teenager, running errands for Isherrith mayor Avi Drōth.
