Babasaheb Apte

Umakant Keshav Apte (29 April 1903 - 1971), also known as Babasaheb Apte, was one of the first pracharaks (full-time propagators) of the Hindu nationalist organisation Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), taking initiation from its founder K. B. Hedgewar. Upon his death, the Babasaheb Apte Smarak Samiti was set up in his honour by RSS pracharak Moropant Pingle, which has been active in commissioning and publishing research on the history of ancient India.
