D
Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar
Explanation
Gopal Baba Walangkar published *Vital-Vidhvansak* (Destroyer of Brahmanical Pollution) in 1888, marking it as the first monthly journal specifically aimed at the upliftment of the untouchable classes. While B.R. Ambedkar is a more famous figure in this movement, his influential journals like *Mooknayak* and *Bahishkrit Bharat* were established much later in the 20th century. The core concept being tested is the early history of the anti-caste movement and the role of 19th-century social reformers in Maharashtra.
