  "account": "Jalgaon witnessed an exhibition and a large-scale rangoli art depicting the life and work of educationist, social reformer and Padma Bhushan Karmaveer Bhaurao Patil. The event was jointly organized by Nutan Maratha College, the Student Assistance Committee and Rayat Shikshan Sanstha, Satara. Dr N K Thackeray, the first Vice-Chancellor of North Maharashtra University, inaugurated the exhibition and addressed the gathering. He praised Bhaurao as the embodiment of humanity, highlighting how Bhaurao's actions taught humanity and brought children from poor backgrounds under the umbrella of education, transcending religious and caste barriers.\n\nThackeray expressed concern that intelligent youth often opt to leave India instead of staying and contributing to society. He further lamented that conflicts were being instigated between different castes.

He emphasized that even individuals who had studied up to the seventh standard during Bhaurao's time would strive to provide education to farmers' children, raising funds to support their schooling.\n\nDr Anil Patil highlighted that while today people have become wealthy, the current state of education raises serious concerns. He also noted that people today often fail to act humanely, with humanity being lost and money becoming the dominant factor in politics. In contrast, Bhaurao, despite having only studied up to the seventh standard, would raise funds to educate farmers' children.\n\nBhaurao's wife played a crucial role in sustaining the organization, and Dr Anil Patil acknowledged her significant contribution.

Dr SR Rane, Director of the Vidyarthi Sahayak Nidhi, delivered the introductory remarks at the event, while Principal LP Deshmukh proposed the vote of thanks.",
