महाराष्ट्र के प्रसिद्ध समाज सुधारक और विचारक गोपाल हरि देशमुख (1823–1892 ई.) को ‘लोकहितवादी’ कहा जाता था। उन्होंने मराठी साप्ताहिक 'प्रभाकर' में 'शतपत्रे' (100 पत्र) लिखकर सामाजिक समानता, आधुनिक शिक्षा और राष्ट्रीय आत्मनिर्भरता का संदेश दिया। वे 1877 के दिल्ली दरबार में हाथ से कती खादी पहनकर गए थे।
