Explanation:

Servants of India Society

Gopal Krishna Gokhale founded the Servants of India Society in 1905. The aim of the society was to train national missionaries for the service of India; to promote, by all constitutional means, the true interests of the Indian people; & to prepare a cadre of selfless workers who were to devote their lives to the cause of the country in a religious spirit.

Social Service League

Narayan Malhar Joshi founded Social Service League in 1911 in Bombay with an aim to secure for the masses better & reasonable conditions of life & work. They organized many schools, libraries, reading rooms, day nurseries & cooperative societies. Their activities also included police court agents' work, legal aid & advice to the poor & illiterate, excursions for slum dwellers, facilities for gymnasia & theatrical performances, sanitary work, medical relief & boys' clubs & scout corps

Dharma Sabha

Radhakant Deb founded Dharma Sabha in 1830. It was an orthodox society that stood for the preservation of the status quo in socio-religious matters, & opposed even the abolition of sati. However, it favoured the promotion of Western education, even for girls.
