Women, Caste and Reform
Why were Jyotirao Phule and Ramaswami Naicker critical of the national movement ? Did their criticism help the national struggle in any way?
They were critical of the national movement because the nationalists had made seating arrangements according to caste distinctions at feasts. The lower castes were made to sit at a distance from the upper castes.
