He was at this time close to Virendranath Chattopadhyaya and Harish-Chandra and, through his acquaintance with the Interior Minister of Prussia, became a founding member of the Berlin Committee, which during the war was involved in a number of failed plans for nationalist revolution within India and mutiny in the Indian Army.[citation needed]

He returned to India in 1914 and founded a chemical factory called "Techno Chemical Laboratory and Works Limited" in Calcutta. He wrote articles on freedom movement Calcutta newspapers and wrote two books on freedom movements abroad.[citation needed]
