He fled to Japan in 1915 and became actively involved with the Ghadar movement’s efforts from abroad, helping coordinate activities and attempting to send arms and men to India, especially after many original Ghadar leaders were arrested or killed. He later played a crucial role in forming the Indian National Army in East Asia during World War II.
