STATE TIMES NEWS
JALGAON: With immense grief, we inform you of the passing away of our beloved founder Chairman Shri Bhavarlal Hiralal Jain (Age 79) on 25th Feb 2016 after a brief illness, at a hospital in Mumbai.
A man of small ideas which created big revolutions, he practiced what he preached and built his entire business on a foundation of inclusiveness and sustainability over the last five decades.
He believed every small farmer is an entrepreneur and must earn a higher income with dignity. He toiled hard to ensure this to over five million farmers. He was a visionary and Karma Yogi.
The company takes a pledge to walk on the path envisaged by him forever. The state funeral and cremation ceremony took place at Jain Hills, Jalgaon at 3:00 PM on Saturday, the 27th February 2016.
The small town entrepreneur who established a billion dollar rural multinational corporation was a spirited champion of the small farmers whom he saw toiling nobly in the face of all adversity. A committed environmentalist and compassionate social worker – is no more!
As we bid farewell to this towering visionary, our hearts are gladdened with the thought that even if he is no more with us, we inherit his legacy of tireless work and love for the environment which he has planted in each and every one of us.
