Birth Anniversary of Savitribai Phule – 3 January

In 1848, Savitribai Phule and Jyotiba Phule started India’s first girls’ school at Bhide Wada, Pune, challenging caste and gender barriers. She worked for widow welfare, opposed child marriage, and used education as a tool of social reform. She died in 1897 while caring for a plague patient.Contact 07994058393.
