Anoop Kumar Beesham (born 4 January 1951)[1] is a South African politician who represented the National Party (NP) in the National Assembly during the first democratic Parliament. Though not initially elected in the 1994 general election,[2] he was sworn in to a seat during the legislative term.[3] He served on the Select Committee on Arts, Culture and Language and the Select Committee on Science and Technology.[4]
In the 1999 general election, Beshaam stood for re-election to the National Assembly, as well as for election to the KwaZulu-Natal Legislature, but he was ranked too low on the New National Party's party list to win a seat.
