Indian Reform Association
The Indian Reform Association was formed on 29 October 1870 with Keshub Chunder Sen as president. It represented the secular side of the Brahmo Samaj and included many who did not belong to the Brahmo Samaj. The objective was to put into practice some of the ideas Sen was exposed to during his visit to Great Britain.〔“After his return to India, Mr. Sen, proceeded to put into practice some of the ideas he had imbibed during his English visit. The first practical step he took in that direction was formation of Indian Reform Association.” - Sastri, pp. 154-155.〕
David Kopf says that Sen was enthusiastic about the Unitarian social gospel, which he observed first hand during his trip abroad. He seemed convinced that the reform efforts he witnessed in Britain could be duplicated in India. The Indian Reform Association was formed to promote “the social and moral reformation of the natives of India.”〔David Kopf, ''The Brahmo Samaj and the Shaping of the Modern Indian Mind'', 1979, pp. 16-18, Princeton University Press, ISBN 0-691-03125-8〕
The comprehensive objective of the Association was to be served through five departments of activity – cheap literature, female improvement, education, temperance, and charity.〔Sen, P.K., ''Keshub Chunder Sen'', 1938, pp. 104-109, Peace Cottage, Calcutta.〕
==Cheap literature==
The object of cheap literature was to disseminate useful scientific information amongst the masses through cheap journals and the publication of cheap and useful tracts. On 16 November 1870, the Indian Reforms Association started publishing a weekly newspaper, ''Sulava Samachar'' in Bengali, priced only one pice. It was the first of its kind in India in the line of journalistic venture. Till then the humbler classes had never handled a newspaper and they were for the first time brought in contact with events that were taking place around them. Protap Chunder Mozoomdar noted, “The novelty and success of the newspaper stimulated repeated imitation.”〔
