The founder of Arya Samaj was Dayanand Saraswati. Option 1, Achaiya Narendra Dev, is incorrect as he was a prominent Indian socialist leader and founder of the Avadh Kisan Sabha. Option 3, Raja Ram Mohan Roy, is incorrect as he was a social reformer and founder of the Brahmo Samaj. Option 4, Acharya Vinoba Bhave, is incorrect as he was a social reformer and follower of Mahatma Gandhi, known for his Bhoodan Movement. Dayanand Saraswati, on the other hand, was a Hindu religious leader and social reformer who founded the Arya Samaj in 1875. The Arya Samaj aimed to promote Vedic principles and revive the purity and simplicity of the Vedic religion.
