🚨 Join the Movement: Bharat Ratna for Savitribai Phule! 🚨

The Issue

To,

The Hon’ble Prime Minister of India,

PMO, New Delhi

 

Why This Petition Matters

Savitribai Phule, India's first female teacher, was a pioneering social reformer who fought against caste and gender discrimination. Along with her husband, Jyotirao Phule, she established the first girls’ school in India in 1848, opening the doors of education for women and marginalized communities.

She championed women’s empowerment, widow remarriage, and education for the oppressed, making her a foundational figure in India’s social justice movement. Despite her unparalleled contributions to Indian society, she is yet to receive Bharat Ratna, the nation’s highest civilian award.

 

Our Demand

We urge the Government of India and the Hon’ble President to confer the Bharat Ratna posthumously upon Savitribai Phule in recognition of her contributions to education, gender equality, and social reform.

She championed women’s empowerment, widow remarriage, and education for the oppressed, making her a foundational figure in India’s social justice movement. Despite her unparalleled contributions to Indian society, she is yet to receive Bharat Ratna, the nation’s highest civilian award.

Why Sign This Petition?
