The correct answer is Raja Ram Mohan Roy.
The Brahmo Samaj was founded by Raja Ram Mohan Roy in Calcutta on 20 August 1828, originally as the "Brahmo Sabha". It sought to reform Hindu society by opposing idolatry, the caste system and social evils such as sati, while advocating the worship of one formless God on the basis of the Upanishads. Ram Mohan Roy is regarded as the "father of the Indian Renaissance" and of modern Indian reform. Vivekananda established the Ramakrishna Mission (1897), Ramakrishna Paramhansa was his spiritual guru, and Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar was an educationist and widow-remarriage reformer.
