The correct answer is Option 2- 1840
The Paramhans Mandali was established to work for the abolition of caste in 1840. The 19th century saw a rise in social reform movements in India, particularly against the caste system. Paramahansa Mandali was a secret socio-religious group established in Bombay and is closely related to Manav Dharma Sabha which was found in 1844 in Surat. It was started by Durgaram Mehtaji, Dadoba Pandurang and a group of his friends. |
