Jyotirao Govindrao Phule, also known as Mahatma Jyotirao Phule was a social worker, activist, teacher, and writer, regarded as one of our country’s most important anti-caste figures. Along with his wife, Savitribai Phule, he is most well-known for his contributions towards the education of women and oppressed castes. This article aims to provide an overview of his ideas and beliefs, his contributions towards social welfare and the legacy he left behind. Early Life: Jyotirao Govindrao Phule He was born on the 11th of April, 1827, in Pune, Maharashtra, into a family that belonged to the Mali caste, which was classified as Shudra within the varna system. Their occupation was that of gardening, and fruit and vegetable cultivation. At that time, the head of state, Facilitating Education For the Underprivileged: There was one incident in particular which affected Jyotirao Phule a lot and drove him to start doing the work he did. In 1848, he was attending the wedding of a Brahmin friend and was part of the wedding procession. However, when they found out he was a Mali and taking part, he was scolded, humiliated, and made to leave. This incident made him realise that he wanted to fight against the caste system and ensure that this did not happen again to his fellow men and women. He and his friends were also deeply inspired by the book It can be said that Jyotirao and Savitribai Phule embodied intersectional feminism well before the term was coined – as they recognised the differe...

New Delhi: “If the four varnas were created from the mouth, the hands, the thighs and the feet of the Brahma, then these four limbs may be termed as the respective vaginas,” wrote Jyotirao Phule in his book Gulamgiri. Phule, who was born on 11 April 1827, challenged the very premise of the racial theory of caste using his choicest weapon — reason. From possibly coining the term Dalit to opening the first school for women in the country, Phule was a radical thinker who practised what he preached. He fought against untouchability and gender discrimination with equal passion. Sample this. Having been married to Savitribai, a social activist, very early in his life, Phule was advised by his coterie of friends and acquaintances to On his 192nd birth anniversary, ThePrint looks at the life and legacy of the Maharashtrian reformer. Education, the solution Throughout Gulamgiri, Phule continuously asserted how lack of access to education was the reason for subjugation of Dalits. Phule was acutely aware — partly due to a personal experience — that Brahmins had maintained their hegemonic control over Indian society by excluding other castes from speaking, reading or even writing Sanskrit. This was one of the reasons that led Phule to set up a school in 1848 where both Dalit men and women could study, and that too not in Sanskrit. The move upset many across caste and gender lines. Later on, he would become a pioneer of education for women and of widow remarriage. When the Br...

Phule later worked part-time as a teacher at the Scottish mission school. In 1848 Phule was reportedly humiliated at the wedding of Brahman friend. He was ordered to leave the wedding procession because he belonged to a Shudra caste. This incident is said to have helped open his eyes to the injustices of the caste system. Besides holding all Phule opened a pioneering school for lower-caste girls in Pune in 1848, a time when it was extremely rare for girls of any caste in India to receive an education. He had educated his wife, Savitribai Phule, at home, and she became the teacher of the girls’ school. Over the next few years, the Phules opened a series of schools in the Pune area for girls and for lower-caste boys and girls. Their work met with great hostility from orthodox Brahmans. Phule opposed child marriage and supported widow remarriage, which was prohibited particularly among high-caste Hindus. He opened a home for widows, especially Brahmans, who had become pregnant and an orphanage for their children. Phule later adopted one of...
