Answer 2

ANSWER:

• Sati/Child Marriage/Infanticide

• Caste/Religious based discrimination

EXPLANATION:

   In the year 1814, Raj Ram Mohan Roy, a religious and social reformer fought persistently against social practices such as sati, child marriage, polygamy and female infanticide. He initiated a movement against the callous custom of sati and facilitated William Bentinck in passing a law in the year 1829 banning this practice. This movement was the first successful religious and social movement against a long-standing social practise.

   Another great religious and social reformer, Sri Vivekananda propagated Sri Ramakrishna Paramhamsa’s message of brotherhood and peace and emphasised the necessity for religious tolerance that would lead to the establishment of harmony and peace in the nation.
