dc.description.abstract | The paper is a humble attempt to draw insights from the live of a great revolutionary educator, Savitribai Phule whose mission in life was to support the downtrodden women. She is an inspiration for all women undergoing suffering in various fields in society. In order to alleviate the position of women, women should get educated. Education was the prerogative of the elite caste, and to initiate the process of the transformation of society, both men and women should be educated. The life of Savitribai Phule is an inspiration for the student and the teacher, the parent and the community at large. With the dynamic backing of her liberal minded husband, Mr Jyotirao Phule, she embarked on a mission to cleanse society of the age old superstitious evils, which debarred the welfare of the lower caste people. Savitribai encountered various challenges from the elite class, which she faced with a steadfast determination, and paved the path for the education of women in India. | |
