Solution

The correct option is C Equal rights to non-Brahmins and women
Sathya Shodhak Samaj was established in 1873 with an aim to provide equal rights to non-Brahmin castes and women. It was founded by Mahatma Jyothibha Phule, who wrote books like ‘Gulamagiri’ and ‘Shetkarayacha Aasud’, and opened schools for Shudras and girls.
