Q. Who established the 'Sharda Sadan', a school for Indian Widows in colonial India?
Answer: Pandita Ramabai
Notes: Pandita Ramabai, an Indian social reformer, established ‘Sharda Sadan’ at Bombay in 1889 with an objective to provide shelter to the ‘destitute high caste widows.’ She also established the Mukti Mission in Pune, as a refuge for young widows deserted and abused by their families and ‘Krupa Sadan,’ a home for “fallen” women, who had been cast out of society.
