A native of Gujarat, Swami Dayanand Saraswati opposed many oppressed practices of Hindu tradition and insisted upon going back to the Vedas. He worked for abolishing several social stigmas such as child marriage and Casteism.
He not only helped society get rid of a myriad of orthodox practices, but also built the social structure for future reforms in India.
Swami Dayanand Saraswati founded the Arya Samaj (An Organization) on April 7, 1875 in Mumbai, with the aim to promote noble ideas, which are universally true for all mankind. The Arya Samaj advocates peaceful and progressive human living. Swami used Arya Samaj as a platform to launch his campaign against social evils that were prevalent in Hindu society at that time.
