About this person

Under threat of persecution, he left for Europe and became associated with London's India House and worked with V. D. Savarkar. He attempted to train as a revolutionary in the 1909 Second Melillan campaign and in Paris, where he became involved in the socialist movement. As a key functionary of the Berlin Committee in the World War I Hindu-German Conspiracy, Acharya attempted to rally German support for Indian revolutionaries. After the war, Acharya moved to the Soviet Union and helped found the Communist Party of India at Tashkent. Disappointed with the Communist International, he left for Europe, worked with the League against Imperialism, and developed anarcho-syndicalist views. After his ban was lifted in 1935, Acharya returned to India, where he worked as a journalist.
