Which of the following books was NOT written by Jyotiba Phule?
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Explanation
The correct answer is option 4 i.e. The Untouchables.
'The Untouchables' was not written by Jyotiba Phule; it was authored by Dr. B.R. Ambedkar in 1948. While Phule was a pioneering social reformer who fought against caste oppression and wrote influential works like 'Gulamgiri,' 'Shetkaryacha Asud,' and 'Brahmananche Kasab,' the book 'The Untouchables' explores the historical roots and social discrimination faced by Dalits in India. Ambedkar, a key architect of the Indian Constitution, deeply analyzed caste-based inequality in this work. Therefore, although both thinkers shared similar goals of social justice, 'The Untouchables' is rightly attributed to Ambedkar, not Phule.
