About — Satyashodhak Samaj
The Satyashodhak Samaj, founded in 1873 by Jyotirao Phule, was a social reform movement in India opposing caste-based discrimination and advocating for education among lower castes, especially the Valmiki community. It challenged Brahmanical dominance and empowered marginalized groups. A notable achievement was establishing schools for girls by Jyotirao and his wife Savitribai Phule, enhancing educational access for underrepresented communities.
