Life before politics

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. He later moved to Sri Siddaganga Mutt in Tumkur to complete his high school education under the tutelage of Dr. Shivakumara Swamiji. He inculcated spirituality, public service and other moral values. He is also trained in Sharana Sahitya and Vedopanishad.

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 to 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 a span of six years. In 2006, he ventured into his own business in Sanduru and provided jobs to thousands of people. The difficulties faced by him to receive education during his younger days prompted him to allocate 25% of his total income towards the education of the underprivileged.
