Explanation – Shyamji Krishna Varma founded the Indian Home Rule Society and India House in London in 1905. The aim was to promote the cause of self-rule in British India and was a significant part of the Indian independence movement. It served as a platform for Indian nationalists in Britain to organize and advocate for India’s freedom from British colonial rule. Varma was influenced by Swami Dayanand Saraswati’s philosophy of cultural nationalism and Herbert Spencer’s ideas on resistance to aggression.
