KRANTIJYOTI SAVITRIBAI PHULE: A PIONEERING WORK ON EDUCATION

Abstract

Savitribai Phule was the first woman who started the first ever school in India exclusively for girls at a time when nobody could dare to even think about educating  a girl. In fact, every educated woman in the society owes a debt to her. There are so many big names of Indian women like Indira Gandhi (Former Prime Minister Of India), Pratibha Patil (Former President Of India), Sarojini Naidu and many others who have made their names in the history because of their education and wisdom. However, not much is available in the history about Savitribai Phule, a woman who kept the foundation for women education in India.
