Raja Ram Mohan Roy (1772-1833) was from Bengal and in 1828 he founded Brahmo Samaj targeting the educated elite, who had to be reformed first because they were the opinion makers of society. One of the greatest contributions of his has been towards the abolition of Sati and child marriage. He opposed idol worship and advocated the worship of the formless Supreme Being of the Upanishads.
