After the Act, reformers formed bodies to put it into practice; the Widow Remarriage Society (Vidhava Vivahottejak Mandal) was set up in the 1860s by Vishnu Shastri Pandit in Bombay.
In South India, the Madras Hindu Widow Marriage Association was formed in the early 1870s, and the Hindu Women's Remarriage Association came later, towards the close of the century, as the movement spread further.
