==Biography==
Ganpatrao Jhadav was born on 5 May 1908 at Gaganbavada, a small hamlet in the Kolhapur district of the western Indian state of Maharashtra. His education at the local school did not go beyond the primary levels due to financial constraints but Jhadav taught himself by reading books. He started his career as a journalist at ''Tej'', a weekly published from Mumbai and later worked at other local publications.
During this period, he was involved with Satyashodhak Samaj, a social organization founded in 1873 by Jyotirao Phule, in their reformist activities and this gave him the opportunity to interact with several known Marathi personalities such as Keshavrao Jedhe, Dinkarrao Jawalkar, Achyutrao Kolhatkar, Bhaskarrao Jadhav, Bhargavaram Viththal Varerkar and M. G. Ranganekar. Soon, he launched a daily, ''Daily Kaiwari'', with the assistance from Bhaskarrao Jadhav and became its editor.〔 His association with Jyotirao Phule and Satyashodhak Samaj influenced him to participate in the Dandi March in March 1930 and he established the Kolhapur district chapter of the Satyashodhak Samaj.〔 During the Indian civil disobedience movement of 1930, he oversaw the information flow between the Indian National Congress leadership and the frontline and underground activists.〔 When Dinkarrao Jawalkar, one of the leaders of the movement in Maharashtra was arrested by the British government, Jhadav stayed underground and organized the picketing movements at Wadi Bunder and Carnak Bunder. He continued clandestine activities till the Gandhi-Irwin Pact was signed on 5 March 1931, granting dominion status to India.〔 During this period, he was also associated with B. R. Ambedkar for the upliftment of the dalit communities and was involved in the ''temple entry protest'' at the Kalaram Temple in March 1930.〔
The latter half of 1930s saw Jhadav getting involved with journalism with renewed vigour and started a weekly by name, ''Sevak'', which was renamed Pudhari on 13 May 1937.〔 The publication is reported to have gained popularity and from the New Year's Day of 1939, it turned a daily to become the largest circulated daily in the western Maharashtra and north Karnataka, with an online edition.〔 Around this time, he founded the Journalists' Association of Kolhapur (''Kolhapur Patrakar Sangha'') and became its founder president.〔 He also served as the president of the Satyashodhak Samaj and was involved with the Samyukta Maharashtra Movement of 1956.〔 His involvement with the farmers led to the establishment of Kolhapur District Agriculturist Co-operative Society of which he was a founder member.〔 His contributions are also reported in the establishment of educational institutions such as Shivaji University, Tararani Vidyapeeth and Mouni Vidyapeeth.〔
