Jadhav was in the forefront and had worked closely with the father of the nation Mahatma Gandhi and Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar. Remembering this glorious contribution of the Daily Pudhari in the freedom struggle and different social movements, the late prime minster Mr. Rajiv Gandhi personally visited Kolhapur to attend the golden jubilee celebrations of the Daily Pudhari in 1989. While in 2009 the union government released Commemorative postal stamp of Late Padmshree Dr. G. G. Jadhav on his birth centenary, at the auspicious hands of the then President of India Smt. Pratibhatai Patil. The chief editor, the recipient of the Padmshree award, Dr. Pratapsinh Jadhav took over the charge of the Daily Pudhari in 1970.
