Consider the following :
- 1.Calcutta Unitarian Committee
- 2.Tabernacle of New Dispensation
- 3.Indian Reform Association
Keshab Chandra Sen is associated with the establishment of which of the above?
Show answer
Answer: B. Keshab Chandra Sen founded the Indian Reform Association (1870) and the Tabernacle of New Dispensation (Nava Vidhan). The Calcutta Unitarian Committee (1821) was started by Raja Rammohan Roy with William Adam and others. So 2 and 3.
Watch for: All three are Brahmo-era Calcutta bodies, so students credit all to Keshab.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Wrong because the Calcutta Unitarian Committee was Rammohan Roy's.
- C. Wrong because the Tabernacle of New Dispensation is also his.
- D. Wrong because Keshab did not found the Calcutta Unitarian Committee.
