(source-spectrum)

The socio- religious reform movements were against the poor condition of women and caste system in India and were not against British domination in India.

The view mentioned in second statement was of Gopalhari Deshmukh ‘Lokhitawadi’ He advocated a reorganization of Indian society on rational principles and modern, humanistic, secular values. He attacked Hindu orthodoxy and supported social and religious equality. His original surname was Shidhaye. Because of 'Vatan' that he had received he was later called as Deshmukh.

Third statement is correctly written.
