Every year on April 11, we celebrate the birth anniversary of one of India’s foremost social reformers, educators and thinkers, Mahatma Jyotiba Phule. He was born on April 11, 1827, in the Satara district, Maharashtra.
In the 1880s, he used the Marathi word ‘Dalit’ to refer to untouchables and outcasts oppressed by society. He was the first person with his wife Savitribai Phule to open a school for girls in Pune in 1848, which was a revolutionary step towards women’s education in India.
Birth Anniversary of Mahatma Phule was celebrated with a lot of enthusiasm and energy on Thursday 11th April 2024 in the premises of Yashwantrao Chavan English medium school , Koperkhairne. The anniversary was conducted by our Honorable Principal ma’am Mrs Lakshmi Arun.
