Jyotirao Phule wrote Gulamgiri (Slavery) in 1873, a book on caste oppression and in praise of the work of Christian missionaries in the cause of the lower castes, so statement I is correct. The Satnami movement in central India, in the region now called Chhattisgarh, was founded by Ghasidas, so statement II is correct. Both statements are right, and the answer is Both I and II, option (C). The book was a sharp criticism of the caste system and of the Brahmin priesthood, and Phule founded the Satyashodhak Samaj in the same year, 1873.
