Family Background

Sanjaybhau Deshmukh was born in a traditional Marathi family. He is one of the four children of late Shri. Uttamrao Deshmukh (Police Patil) and Mrs Savitabai Deshmukh. With carrying the successful ancestral farming business, the whole family committed to society's improvement which can be still seen today.

Being the dearest and closest to his father, Sanjay Bhau could always see his father's love and affection toward his village in his eyes. His admiration and resemblance for his father made him carry his father's name Police Patil proudly after him.

He faced enormous challenges at his very early age. In the dam crisis, the entire village had migrated to another place. Sanjay Bhau saw losing his father's all hard-earned fertile land in front of his eyes. The whole family's life cycle was in trouble due to meager compensation and no other source of earning.

Sanjay Bhau didn't give up and acted like a responsible man of the family. The younger brother Ishwar acted just like the name and successfully cleared the IAS exam. Sanjay Bhau didn't stop till his brother completed the IAS degree on 2 October 2001 and sacrificed everything for his education.

He never cared about getting the power of politicians but always considered equality, justice, brotherhood, growth, and unity as his accomplishments. They say complete development is impossible to assimilate power, and one man can't do it but Bhau proved it wrong. Sanjay Bhau worked on multiple development projects in the allotted time, and many new schemes were implemented for the overall development of farming, jobs, businesses, and women empowerment. In his recent Arunavati projects, the benefits can be seen in many other areas.

He created a whole development plan of what should be done.
