B.

C and D only  

C.

B, C and D only  

D.

A, B and D only  

Correct option is D

The correct answer is (D) A, B and D only

Explanation:
• Raja Rammohan Roy wrote Tuhfat-ul-Muwahhidin (Gift to Monotheists) in Persian in 1803 with an Arabic introduction.
• He argued that the Vedas and Upanishads preached the worship of one God (Monotheism).
• Paramahansa Mandali, founded in 1849 in Maharashtra by Dadoba Panderung and others, was strictly monotheistic and opposed idol worship.
• Statement C is incorrect because the Widow Remarriage Association (1850s) was primarily the work of Vishnu Shastri Pandit; Vidyasagar was the champion of the movement in Bengal and led to the passing of the 1856 Act, but the specific "Association" mentioned is usually linked to the western Indian reformers.

Information Booster:
• Raja Rammohan Roy founded the Brahmo Samaj in 1828.
• Atmiya Sabha was founded by him in 1815.
• Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar was the principal of Sanskrit College.

Additional Knowledge:
• Vishnu Shastri Pandit founded the Widow Remarriage Association in 1861 in Maharashtra.

So the correct answer is (d)
