  • Son Ranjit Jadhav has started the KD Jadhav foundation — aiming at 2020 to tap the talent from the traditional stronghold and push them to excel on mat, but the challenge is daunting. “They become Maharashtra Kesari, and their aspirations end at Hind Kesari at most. Otherwise, they are content with a procession, a lakh rupees, a car and then patronage of an MLA. But they need to look beyond that,” he says. “My father had the drive to win a medal. Money wasn’t even secondary — it came, or didn’t come, way later.”
