Amongst the following, who cooperated with Raja Ram Mohan Roy in the implementationof his educational programmes ?

Raja Ram Mohan Roy, the 'Father of Modern India', was a staunch advocate for Western education and scientific learning. He collaborated most closely with David Hare, a Scottish watchmaker and philanthropist, to establish the Hindu College in Calcutta in 1817 [c1][c3][t4]. While Roy provided the intellectual impetus and public support, Hare was the organizational force behind the project [t8]. Together, they aimed to disseminate modern education to Indian students [t6]. Although Dwarkanath Tagore was a close associate and co-founder of the Brahmo Samaj, and Henri Derozio was a radical teacher at Hindu College, it was David Hare who was Roy's primary partner in implementing his specific educational programs [c4][t6]. William Jones, conversely, was an Orientalist who focused on ancient Indian studies and died before Roy's major educational initiatives began.
