Country’s first school for girls was started at Bhide Wada in Pune. On 1st Jan. 1848, India’s first school for girls was started at Bhide Wada in Pune by Mahatma Jotiba Phule and Savitribai Phule.

The present condition of that first school for girls is miserable because of the lack of interest from subsequent governments in preserving the Dalit-Bahujan heritage.

The condition of Bhide Wada where first lady teacher of the nation Savitribai Phule taught along with Fatima Begum! Thanks to Brahmin-Bania run governments.
