Answer:

B. Satyashodhak Samaj

The main aim of Satyashodhak Samaj was the upliftment of backward classes. It was founded by Jyotiba Phule in 1873 for the welfare of Dalits and lower castes. He composed critical books “Sarvjanik Satya Dharm Pustak” and ‘Gulamgiri’ to spread his Anti-Brahmin activities.
