💡 Solution & Explanation

Vagbhatananda founded the Atmavidya Sangham in 1917 to eradicate superstitious practices, while the Yogakshema Sabha was formed by reformers like V.T. Bhattathiripad to reform Namboothiri orthodoxy. Ayyankali established the Sadhu Jana Paripalana Sangham in 1907 for depressed classes, and Sahodaran Ayyappan created the Sahodara Sangham to promote inter-caste dining and equality. These organizations collectively dismantled rigid social hierarchies across Kerala.
