In the Marathi poem 'Golpitha' by Namdeo Dhasal, to whom does 'pilgrims of darkness' and 'sunflower-giving fakir' is being referred to?

Dalits and Dr. Ambedkar respectively

The correct answer is Option 3 - Dalits and Dr. Ambedkar respectively

The pilgrims were the Dalit communities who had experienced brutal caste injustices for a long time in our society and the poet is referring to Dr. Ambedkar as their liberator. Dalit poets in Maharashtra wrote many such poems during the decade of seventies. These poems were expressions of anguish that the Dalit masses continued to face even after twenty years of independence.
