Rājā Rammohun Roy (1772-1833) was born in a Kulīn (Rārhi) Brāhmaṇa family and had studied Sanskrit along with other languages. He published the following translations.
Indian Posts & Telegraphs issued a diamond shaped stamp (India's first) in the denomination of 15nP on 27.09.1964 to commemorate Raja Rammohun Roy. As usual an FDC and a brochure too followed.
Vedāntasāra (1815) – Essay in Beṅgāḷi on selected aphorisms of the Brahmasūtrabhāṣya.
Īśa, Kena, Kaṭha and Muṇḍaka Upaniṣads – English and Beṅgāḷi commentaries.
There were criticisms about his translations and his opponents called him to the extent of an atheist, a "destroyer of religion," and a "sinful modern."
