Aminappagouda Sanganagouda Patil (born 22 July 1969), also known as A.S. Patil, is an Indian politician, and the member of the Bharatiya Janata Party.[1]
Aminappagouda Sanganagouda Patil was born in Nadahalli Village of Muddebihal Taluk of Vijayapura District into a humble family. He was the third among the six children of his parents, Sri Sanganagouda Patil and Smt. Gangubai. Inspired by the teachings of Sri Basavanna, he took it upon himself to work towards the elimination of social evils and contribute in his own way towards social change. This prompted him to pursue social service.
A. S. Patil completed his primary education in his native village before moving to Sri Siddaganga Mutt in Tumkur, where he pursued his high school education under the guidance of Dr. Shivakumara Swamiji. During this time, he imbibed spirituality, public service, and strong moral values. Additionally, he received training in Sharana Sahitya and Vedopanishad, deepening his knowledge in these spiritual and literary disciplines.
He completed his graduation from Karnatak Science College in Dharwad and later went on to get a Postgraduate Degree in Geology from Karnataka University, Dharwad. During this time, he engaged himself actively in politics and emerged as a popular student leader.
After his student life, he began his professional career. Owing to his interest in mining, he left for Sanduru in 1995 and secured a job in VS Lad and Company. He rapidly climbed the job ladder and became the Senior Mining Engineer of the company in the span of six years. In 2006, he ventured into his own business in Sanduru and provided jobs to thousands of people. The difficulties he faced to receive education during his younger years prompted him to allocate 25% of his total income towards the education of the underprivileged.
A S Patil is married to Smt. Mahadevi A Patil Nadahalli. The couple has two sons: Bharat Patil Nadahalli, who is a graduate in Business & Management from Cardiff University, UK and Sharath Patil Nadahalli, who is also a Business & Management Graduate from Birmingham University, UK.
