खालीलपैकी कोणत्या वृत्तपत्रांना राजर्षी शाहू महाराजांनी नैतिक आणि आर्थिक पाठबळ दिले ?
अ. विजयी मराठा
ब. दीनमित्र
क. तरुण मराठा
ड. संदेश

The correct answer is Option B (a, b and c).

Key Points:
• Patronage of Rajarshi Shahu Maharaj to the Press:
• Rajarshi Chhatrapati Shahu Maharaj actively nurtured and financially supported non-Brahmin and progressive journals to provide voice to the backward and depressed classes.
• Vijayi Maratha (विजयी मराठा): Founded in Pune in 1919 by Shripatrao Shinde, strongly supported and funded by Shahu Maharaj.
• Dinmitra (दीनमित्र): Originally started by Krishnarao Bhalekar and later revived and edited by Mukundrao Patil from Tarawadi (Ahmednagar), received continuous financial assistance from Shahu Maharaj.
• Tarun Maratha (तरुण मराठा): Edited by Baburao Yadav, received moral and financial assistance from Kolhapur.
• Shahu Maharaj also famously financed Dr. B.R. Ambedkar's fortnightly 'Mooknayak' (मूकनायक) in 1920 (granting Rs. 2,500).
• 'Sandesh' was primarily edited by Achyut Balwant Kolhatkar in Pune/Mumbai and was not among Shahu Maharaj's core subsidized journals.
• Therefore, Shahu Maharaj gave moral and financial support to a, b, and c (Option 2).
• Key Takeaway: Rajarshi Shahu Maharaj provided moral and financial backing to Vijayi Maratha, Dinmitra, Tarun Maratha, and Mooknayak.
