The Centre is planning a museum at Pusad, in the Yavatmal district of Maharashtra, in memory of the 1930 Jungle Satyagraha. it plans to dedicate to RSS founder KB Hedgewar.
The Jungle Satyagraha was led by regional leaders such as lawyer, freedom-fighter and Congress member from Nagpur MV Abhyankar, Wamanrao Joshi, a Marathi journalist, playwright, and freedom fighter from Amravati and MS ‘Bapuji’ Aney, an educationist, freedom fighter and founder of the Congress Nationalist Party.
