Who among the following founded the 'Atmiya Sabha' in Calcutta in 1815 to campaign against social evils and propagate monotheistic ideas?

💡 Solution & Explanation

Raja Ram Mohan Roy founded the Atmiya Sabha in Calcutta in 1815 as an association to campaign against idolatry, caste rigors, and social evils while promoting monotheistic philosophy. Reformers like Debendranath Tagore and Keshab Chandra Sen later led subsequent generations of the Brahmo Samaj movement that evolved from these early foundations. This intellectual circle served as a crucible for early Indian socio-religious reform. Roy is widely acknowledged as the pioneer of the Indian Renaissance.
