Correct:
D
Explanation
The chronological order of the events is as follows: First, the Brahmo Samaj was founded by Raja Ram Mohan Roy in 1828 in Bengal [4]. Second, the Paramhan Mandali (or Paramahansa Sabha) was established in Western India around 1849 as a precursor to the Prarthana Samaj [5]. Third, the Arya Samaj was founded by Swami Dayananda Saraswati in Bombay on April 10, 1875 [2]. Finally, the Ramakrishna Mission was established by Swami Vivekananda in 1897 to carry forward the teachings of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa [4]. This sequence (1828, 1849, 1875, 1897) corresponds to the order 3, 4, 2, 1. These movements were pivotal in the 19th-century socio-religious reform landscape, addressing issues like idol worship, caste barriers, and education [4].
