<P> The police brought strong pressure on India House and began gathering intelligence on Indian students in London . These, along with threats to their careers, robbed India House of its student support base . It slowly began to disassemble as a centre of radical Indian Nationalism . As Thirumal Acharya described bitterly, the residence was treated akin to a "leper's home" by the Indian students in the city . In addition, although student political activism could not be curtailed too heavily for fear of accusations of repression, the British Government successfully implemented laws to curtail the publication and distribution of nationalist or seditious material from Britain .

India House ceased to be an influence in Britain . </P> <P> Political activities at India House were chiefly aimed at young Indians, especially students, in Britain . Political discontent was at the time growing steadily among this group, especially those in touch with the professional class in India and those studying in depth the philosophies of European liberalism .

This was while India House was under the stewardship of Shyamji Krishna Varma . Indian students who discussed the community at the time described the growing influence of India House--especially in the context of the 1905 partition of Bengal--and attributed to this influence the decrease in the number of Indian applicants for Government posts and the Indian Civil Service . The Indian Sociologist attracted considerable attention in London newspapers . Others, however, disagreed with these views and described India House's appeal as limited . S.D. Bhaba, president of the Indian Christian Union, once described Krishna Varma as a man "whose bark was worse than his bite". </P> <P> Under Savarkar, the organisation became the focus of the Indian revolutionary movement abroad and one of the most important links between revolutionary violence in India and Britain . Although the organisation welcomed both moderates and those with extremist views, the former outnumbered the latter . Significantly, a number of the residents, especially those who agreed with Savarkar's views, did not have any history of participation in nationalist movements in India, suggesting they were indoctrinated during their stay at India House . </P>
