Jyotiba and Savitribai Phule, visionary social reformers, charted a path-breaking revolution towards female education and the eradication of caste and gender-based discrimination. During the challenging period of British imperialism, they established India's first girls' school in Pune in 1848, leaving an indelible impact on the nation's educational reforms and igniting the flame of modern education in India. Jyotiba Phule’s immense contribution in establishing gender and caste equality rendered him the esteemed title of ‘Mahatma’.
