Most defend #RajaRamMohanRoy saying Bengal was just liberated from Mughals due to British & not Hindus, therefore RRM thought Hindus as Inferior & he wanted Hindus to be Powerful like that of Bristish & hence propagated British ideology.
I would have agreed for this

but RRM Roy knew the history of Marathas & how they triumphed over Mughals, so with whatever reasoning these RRMRoy friend’s tries to justify his actions, it falls flat.
Also, they say British were more civilized than Islamic rule & hence RRM Roy looked upon them as Saviours…

Again this theory gets destroyed, as the British had already started exploiting poor farmers, their atrocities against 1000s & 1000s of common men were growing rapidly.
Apart from that, RRM Roy also knew what happened to Goan Hindus under Christians, how the Church suppressed

Scientists of the WEST.
ALL IT TAKES IS BASIC COMMON SENSE TO KNOW WHAT RAJA RAM MOHAN ROY WAS.

On his birth anniversary, let's take a look at RRM's Dark Side which nobody reveals.

RRM considered himself as an intellectual of highest order, got converted to Christianity

Assisted Duff In Opening Institutions & Promote Missionary Work.
Established Brahmo Samaj To SUPPRESS Idolatry Form of Worship.
Brought in Intellectual Brahmins who were attracted towards the White Skinned Europeans and Converted them.
And then,
THE ABOLISHMENT OF SATI.

The Question is,
Did #Sati Exist?
Yes, Across a few parts of Bharath.
Was It Rampant?
No, Never.
How Can You Say That?
Because, There's No Such Instance Of Wife Sacrificing Her Life For Her Husband In Our Vedas, Itihaas Nor Puranas. In fact, Vedas supported Widow remarriage.

Then, When It Started?
The Greeks practiced widow burning centuries before it started here.
In case of Bharath, the Women, Unable To Bear The Ire Of Rapist Muslims, Committed Suicide Either In The Husband's Pyre or Doused Themselves In Fire.
Mostly Amongst Rajputs.
Then, How

Did It Spread To Other Parts of India?
It Never Spread, The British, Like The Present Day Communists Spread Ill About India.
It Was Because, They Wanted To Conquer Bharath & Found Raja Ram Mohan Roy As A Willing Candidate For Treason.

How Did They Achieve?
Too Simple,
The British Made 1000s and 1000s of Paintings Showing Women Committing Sati, Shipped It To Britain.
Thus, there are three facets to Roy which are absolutely correct.
One, he was very sympathetic to the British regime.
Two, he was a Christian.

Three, the foundation of the Brahmo Samaj was deeply inspired by the principles of Christianity.
I say Rajaram Mohan Roy was a Cheat who tried vile forms to usurp Bharat’s rich history of Tradition & Culture, a Converted Christian and a Rabid Missionary with few proofs.
