About Us
The most significant contribution in terms of unwavering support and strength to Dr. Ramchandra B. Gogate was made by his wife, Dr. Anagha Ramchandra Gogate.
She was born on 7th November 1936 to Mr. Gajanan and Indira Sahasrabuddhe in Panchgani, Satara district of Maharashtra.
Being a daughter of a teacher father who then worked in Sanjeevan Vidyalaya school, Dr. Anagha — then called Hira — grew up in an education-friendly and constructivism-oriented environment. She did her schooling from Sanjeevan Vidyalaya, Panchgani, and moved to Pune in 1950 for her higher secondary studies in Fergusson College. She was later admitted to Tilak Ayurved Mahavidyalaya for BAMS, where she pursued her bachelor's degree in Ayurvedic sciences. She excelled in academics all throughout her student life and thereafter.
She married Dr. Ramchandra Ballal Gogate on 21st May 1963.
She worked as an MO in Matrumandir from 1968–69 and as a clinical assistant from 1968–69. She received enormous appreciation in teaching as a professor in Tilak Ayurved Mahavidyalaya from 1970 onwards. From shifting towns with him, making all the necessary sacrifices for the family to take care of children and in-laws, giving up on ambitions and dreams, to being the strongest pillar to her husband so that he could continue to serve the people and community without any hassles and hurdles, she left no stone unturned to support him.
In spite of immense responsibilities and difficulties that she had, she continued to share his work and role as and when possible, to the best of her abilities, without a single complaint. She continued to be an epitome of love, care and resilience. We lost her on 12th September 2019 after her long-standing battle with prolonged illness. She will always be remembered for being remarkably virtuous and dutiful, with an incomparable will to stand by her husband through any odds.
