Women Education has always been regarded as one of the success pillars of the society. A society with women empowerment is found to be more progressive, flourishing, matured and open for evolution. In 19th century when India was dominated by traditional belief and the society was more patriarchal centric, Savitribai Phule was a beacon. Born to a conservative Mali family in Maharashtra was kept from any form education till her marriage to Jyotirao Phule at very young age. Her education started under the guidance of her spouse Jyotirao Phule who was always supportive of women education and empowerment. With formal education and herself being subjugated to various forms of oppression at the hands of society, she was more focussed on the reforms to ensure women empowerment. Her family even distanced themselves from her due to her reformist approach on women education which directly challenges the conservative approach of the society. In spite of many impediment she along with her husband and few like mind established many Schools and trust to focus on women education. She was aware that to reduce the oppressive attitude of the society towards women it was necessary to educate the women first and then bring about the reforms. Her methods made her a victim of harassment on the hands of orthodox believers but she persisted on her journey. She was sceptical of the society of doing any justice to the oppressed women hence she took up the cause and made sure a change does happen. Her self-esteem, belief and courage with inspiration from her husband and friends made her overcome the challenges of the society and push for social reforms of the society.
