S.K. Limaye

Shripad Krishna Limaye (born 8 December 1909, date of death unknown) was an Indian politician and trade unionist. However in 1942 he and his group of followers were expelled from the party. The rationale behind the expulsion was Limaye's opposition to support to the British war effort. However, the merger went through and the Navjivan Sangathana members were admitted en bloc into the PWP.

The presence of the Limaye group in the PWP sharped the internal divisions inside the PWP. In the end the party was split, with the Limaye group joining the splinter group Kamgar Kisan Paksha. Soon that party was split as well, on the issue of its relations with the Communist Party. Limaye and Deshmukh did not go along with the merger of the party into the Communist Party, instead they regrouped as the Lal Nishan Gat ('Red Banner Group'). In 1962, as the Sino-Indian war broke out, Limaye was arrested and put in preventive detention just before a parliamentary session.

Personal life Born in Sangli, S.K. Limaye was the son of Krishna Govind Limaye. He studied at Fergusson College in Poona. As of the 1960s, the resided in the Byculla neighbourhood of Bombay.
