Instructions : Answer the question                                 61   64
    Nos. 61 to 64 on the basis of the
    following passage :
    Rukhmabai was married at the age
    of 11 to Dadaji, an illiterate boy of
    18. As she was too young, she was
    not sent to her husband’s home. She
    refused to join him when she grew
    up and so in 1884, Dadaji filed a suit
                                                  1884
    for getting her legal possession. She
    argued that she was married
    without her consent and therefore
    she should not be forced to live with
    him. The verdict went in her favour
    though Dadaji argued that the
    scriptures did not back her claim.
    When Dadaji appealed in the High
    Court, it accepted his claim and
    ordered that she should live with
    Dadaji or else face imprisonment.
    This stirred up a great debate about
    women’s rights among the Indian
    intellectuals with M.G. Ranade
    offering scriptural and moral support
    to Rukhmabai and B.G. Tilak
    advising her to improve her husband
    and live happily with him. After an                     1889
    Out of Court Settlement in 1889, she
    went to England to become a doctor.
    She served as a doctor of women and
    children in India till 1955.                  1955
