  • But soon she was accused of converting Hindu women to Christianity and hence had to shift her activities to Khedgoan near Poona.
  • She established a Mukti Sadan (freedom house) there. Soon there were 2000 children and women in the house. Vocational training was given to make them self-reliant.
