Explanation

  • Krishnavarma, a native of Kathiawar in Western India, had studied at the Cambridge University and qualified for the Bar. After his return to India, he served in several Indian states, but felt thoroughly disgusted with the overbearing attitude of the political residents. He decided to work for India’s liberation from British oppression and chose London as the centre of his activities.
  • In 1905, Krishnavarma set up the India Home Rule Society popularly known as the India House.
  • He also published a monthly journal, The Indian Sociologist to espouse Indian causes. He also instituted six fellowships of Rs 1,000 each for qualified Indians visiting foreign countries. Very soon India House became a centre of Indian activities in London. A group of Indian revolutionaries, including V. D. Savarkar, Hardayal and Madan Lal Dhingra became members of the India House.
  • In 1909, Madan Lal Dhingra shot dead Col. William Curzon Wyllie, political ADC to the Indian office. The British authorities swung into action. Madal Lal was hanged. Savarkar was arrested and deported to India. Shyamji left London and settled in Paris. Thus the activities of the India House at London had to be wound up.
