वरीलपैकी कोणते विधान बरोबर आहे ?

The correct answer is Option C (b, c and d).

Key Points:
• Objectives of the Non-Brahmin Movement:
• Pioneered by Mahatma Jyotirao Phule, Rajarshi Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj, Keshavrao Jedhe, Dinkarrao Javalkar, and the Justice Party.
• Dignity for Lower Castes (Statement b): Uplifting the backward and Depressed Classes (Bahujan Samaj) to secure human rights, social dignity, and equality.
• Political Organization (Statement c): Mobilizing the non-Brahmin masses politically through platforms like the Non-Brahmin Party to challenge elite dominance in representative institutions.
• Socio-Economic and Educational Advancement (Statement d): Securing reservations in education and government jobs, opening hostels, and eliminating cultural exploitation.
• Statement 'a' is fundamentally incorrect because opposing Brahminical supremacy and hegemony was the bedrock foundation of the movement.
• Key Takeaway: The Non-Brahmin movement aimed to dismantle upper-caste hegemony, promote education, and politically organize the Bahujan Samaj.
