Solution

The correct option is A True
Rokeya Sakhawat Hossain commonly known as Begum Rokeya, was a Bengali feminist thinker, writer, educationist, political activist, an advocate of women's rights, and widely regarded as a pioneer of women's liberation in South Asia. She wrote her feminist utopian story 'Sultana's Dream' in 1905. It was published in the same year in Madras-based English periodical 'The Indian Ladies Magazine'.
The story is based on an imagined Ladyland where women seem to have access to public spaces without being restricted by social or religious customs.
