Ramabai was honoured and the titles of Paṇḍitā and Sarasvatī. She was given the title of Paṇḍitā in a ceremony by Maharaja Jyotindra Moha Thakur in Bengal, and the title of Sarasvatī was conferred upon her by a progressive society of Bengal. *Morals for Women* was the English translation of her first book *Strīdharmanīti* in Marathi (1882). *The High Caste Hindu Women* was published in June 1887. On 29 September 1883 Ramabai was baptized along with her daughter Manorama. She was severely criticized in India and several periodicals like *Induprakash*, *Subodhpatrika* and *Marahatla*, condemned her. Only Jyotiba Phule stood with her.
