In February 1922, Gandhi's suspended his Non-Cooperation Movement due to after several policemen had been murdered by a revolutionary mob at Chauri Chaura which disappointed Azad and he went on to join the radical Hindustan Republican Association (HRA).

In HRA, Azad participated in several violent crimes, notably the Kakori train robbery (1925) and the revenge killing of a British police officer JP Saunders at Lahore in 1928, where he sought to avenge the killing of Lala Lajpat Rai.

Known for his organizational skills, Azad played a key role in reorganizing the HRA as the Hindustan Socialist Republican Association after most of the HRA's members had been killed or imprisoned. His crimes had made him a wanted man, but Azad was able to elude the police and its informants for several years.
