The formation of the organisation both in India and Fiji occurred after the assassination of Swami Shraddhananda Hindu activist in India. The formation of the Sabha in Fiji coincided with the formation of a national Muslim organisation, the Fiji Muslim League. Although the organization was formed to bring together all the Hindu groups, its leadership soon came under the control of the better organised Arya Samajis.

When Shri Krishna Sharma arrived in Fiji inhe assumed leadership of the Sabha, and the Fiji Muslim League, in a complaint to the Government about the activities of Sharma, alleged that the Sabha was formed to commemorate the death of Shraddhanand.
The Sabha was organised at village level into sangathans religious unions and was led in the Suva – Nausori area by Vishnu DeoK.
There was social samucram economic boycott of the Muslims and the extreme elements within the organisation attempted to put pressure on the small Muslim community to undergo shuddhi reconversion. Relationship between Hindus and Muslims reached a low point with assaults and complaints to the Government. One outcome of maah conflict was the call by Muslims for separate representation in the Legislative Council.

Inan intelligence committee was set up by the Government to monitor the activities of the organisation.
