JJ stands for Sir Jamsetji Jeejeebhoy. Here's some information of his great benevolence. Jamsetji Jeejeebhoy was born in Bombay in 1783 in a poor family. His father's profession was to buy and sell old bottles. Jamsetji, at the age of eighteen, entered into partnership with his father-in- law, and made successful voyages to China - dealing in opium trade. He was very prosperous after twenty years of business. He funded hospitals, schools, charity homes throughout Mumbai and India. He also financed construction of public works such as wells, reservoirs, bridges, and causeways. Jamsetji's wife Avabai spent the entire sum of Rs. 155,800 in 1841 to build Mahim Causeway to connect Bombay to the island of Salsette after the British government refused to fund the public works project. Queen Victoria conferred the knighthood on him in 1842, followed by award of baronetcy in 1858. Sir JJ passed away in 1859. The City of Mumbai has a lot of reasons to be grateful to this great man.
