If your topic of research is “A History of Satya Shodhak Samaj : 1873-1900”, which of the following will be a secondary source for your research ?

  • A.Annual reports of Satya Shodhak Samaj
  • B.Sarvajanik Satya Dharma Pustak
  • C.Mahatma Phule’s biography by Dhananjay Keer
  • D.Nibandh Mala of Vishnushastri Chiplunkar

Answer: C

The secondary source is Mahatma Phule's biography by Dhananjay Keer.

A secondary source is a later account written from the primary evidence. Dhananjay Keer's biography of Phule, published long after the period, is such an interpretation.

The annual reports of the Satya Shodhak Samaj are its own records, and the Sarvajanik Satya Dharma Pustak is Phule's own book, both primary sources. Vishnushastri Chiplunkar's Nibandhamala was a contemporary periodical of the 1870s and 1880s, so for this period it too is a primary source.
