THE BVSS MARATHA ST
S Sajjan Rao was born and brought up in an humble environment in a small village near Maddur. His maternal uncle Venkata Rao Bhojgade brought him Bengaluru to earn livelihood. The shrewd and smart young boy, quickly learnt the art of trade while helping his mentor. He had taken agency of Binny Mill products and was also a sole distributor for all the products of K.R Mills to Mysore Province. With the welfare of his Maratha community in mind, he was largely responsiblle for the growth of Maratha Students Free Boarding Home which was established in 1909. With the nucleus fund of 40,000 rupees provided by the wife of late Venkata Rao Bhojgade, he prudently managed the hostel and its assets, adding his own handsome donation of 50,000 rupees. Hence the name, B. Venkata Rao S. Sajjan Rao Maratha Student's Home. The old graceful building of the hostel in the vast premises on Bull Temple Road, Basavangudi, is still retained.

“ During my 3-year engineering program in Bangalore, BVSS Maratha Students Home was a blessing. They provided free accommodation, easing financial worries. The trustees organized sports activities and supported academic needs, which helped me grow. In a pricey city like Bangalore, their help made living costs manageable. I owe a lot to BVSS Maratha Students Home for my academic and personal progress. It was more than just a hostel; it was like a second home. I sincerely thank the trustees and everyone involved for their kindness. BVSS Maratha Students Home will always have a special place in my heart. ”
