Solution

The correct option is D Due to the radical ideologies of Keshab Chandra Sen.
Keshab Chandra Sen greatly believed in the spirit of Christianity. Sen's radical views like inclusion of teachings from all religions even from christianity made the Brahmo Samaj split into two different organisations in 1866. Maharishi Debendranath Tagore’s organisation came to be known as Adi Brahmo Samaj, while Keshab Chandra Sen’s organisation was known as Bharatvarshiya Brahmo Samaj.
