    1. Swami Vivekananda
    2. Swami Dayanand Saraswati
    3. Aurobindo Ghosh
    4. Raja Ram Mohan Roy
Correct Option: B

‘Back to Vedas’ was Swami Dayanand Saraswati’s call when he established the Arya Samaj. By exhorting the nation to reject superstitious notions, his aim was to educate the nation to ‘Go back to the Vedas’. He wanted the people who followed Hinduism to go back to its roots and to follow the Vedic life, which he pointed out. By doing this, he felt that Hindus would be able to improve the depressive religious, social, political, and economic conditions prevailing in India in his times.
