Being Bhausaheb

Bhausaheb, who was born in a village named Bamni near Kolhapur, left his village for education. After completing his studies, he joined Sakal in 1987 as a Junior Engineer. At the time of his death in 2020, he was one of the key directors of Sakal. He had dedicated himself completely to the organization.

With the growing use of technology, journalism and printing, like many other fields, underwent significant transformation. To survive in changing times, adopting new technology became essential for everyone. During this period, Bhausaheb Patil worked in various technical roles and introduced many new technologies at Sakal, successfully implementing them. He also brought many new people into the organization, creating employment opportunities and preparing Sakal to adapt to changing times.

Bhausaheb played a major role in establishing this technological advancement at Sakal. This book explains how he identified and implemented these changes. In the foreword, Abhijit Pawar has expressed his thoughts about Bhausaheb and the book very precisely. He says:

“This book is not merely praise or glorification of Bhausaheb; rather, it is the story of a self-made legacy. Through this story, readers will come to know many of Bhausaheb’s qualities. The purpose of this book is to understand what lessons can be learned from them. Some of these qualities may already exist within you, but if this story helps awaken them, it can give rise to new energy.”
