Henry Vivian Derozio was the founder of the Young Bengal Movement in the early 19th century.
Derozio was a teacher at Hindu College, Calcutta, and his radical views and teachings inspired his students to question existing social and religious practices, leading to the formation of the Young Bengal group.
David Hare was a Scottish watchmaker and philanthropist who played a significant role in establishing modern education in Bengal, including Hindu College. Dwarkanath Tagore and Prasanna Kumar Tagore were prominent Bengali reformers and associates of Rammohan Roy, but were not founders of the Young Bengal Movement, which was distinct and more radical in its early phase.
