Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Indian women began to attend universities in the 1880s. Some of them went on to become doctors, while others became teachers. Many women began to write and publish critical views on women's roles in society. Women were actively working for reform by the end of the nineteenth century. They wrote books, edited magazines, established schools and training centres, and formed women's organisations. They formed political pressure groups in the early twentieth century to push for female suffrage (the right to vote) and better health care and education for women. Beginning in the 1920s, some of them joined various nationalist and socialist movements. Leaders such as Jawaharlal Nehru and Subhas Chandra Bose advocated for greater equality and freedom for women in the twentieth century.
