  Udit,
  Nice attempt. Good try at covering all the major demands of the question.
  The content needs to be more.
  Role of Raja Ram Mohan Roy in making sati illegal.
  Role of Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar in women’s education.
  Make the answer more diverse by covering contribution from Parsi reforms and role played by freedom fighters.
  Trey to include examples of role models who reflect women empowerment at that time.
  Overall nice attempt.
  Keep writing.
