Question

explain the roles of indian social reformer on society with examples​

Answer 1

Answer:

While there is a lot of involvement of people with political and economic issues, issues of social reform are largely neglected.

Swami Vivekananda integrated spirituality with social reform.

Above all, the freedom movement was so interwoven with social reform that those who picketed liquor shops were regarded as much as freedom fighters as those who participated in rallies for the demanding freedom from colonial role. We have to thank Gandhiji for this close integration, but even if we look at other streams of the freedom movement involving Shahid Bhagat Singh or Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose or Master Surya Sen, this high regard for social reform was very visible.
