Detailed Solution

The given statement is true.
Jyotirao, the reformer, defends their criticism of social caste inequality.
When it came to the iniquities of caste society, Jyotirao Phule created his theories. The assertion of the Brahmans that they were superior to others because they were Aryans was challenged by Jyotirao Phule. The Aryans, he claimed, were outsiders who invaded the subcontinent, defeated the actual citizens of the land, and then conquered and subjugated them. The defeated populace came to be viewed negatively by Aryans as inferior and of low caste. According to Phule, the upper castes had no legal claim to their lands or positions of authority. The land belonged to the natives, also known as the "poor castes," in actuality. He anticipated a time when lower caste people could coexist peacefully without high caste interference—a time he called the "golden age."
