H.K. Vyas

Hari Krishna Vyas (born 11 August 1922, date of death unknown) was an Indian politician.

Vyas was born on 11 August 1922. As of the 1940s, Vyas was a student movement leader, active in the All India Students Federation. He served as the president of the C.P. and Berar Trade Union Congress 1948–1949. In a subsequent bye-election in 1952, he won the Jodhpur City "B" seat with 27.9% of the votes. In 1953 he became a member of the CPI National Council. In 1962 he became the Vice President of the Indian Association for Afro-Asian Solidarity. As the rival Communist Party of India (Marxist) had seized most of the trade union structures of CPI in Rajasthan, a new All India Trade Union Congress Rajasthan State Committee was formed in 1965 with Vyas as its secretary. He was also in charge of managing the People's Publishing House. He contested the Ajmer seat, and came in third place with 51,524 votes (13.79%).

In the 1980s Vyas emerged as a critic of the party leadership and a defender of the S.A. Dange line. Whilst Dange himself left CPI to form the All India Communist Party, Vyas and Mohit Sen remained in CPI and sought to uphold the Dange line within the party. He returned to CPI and became its State secretary. Vyas died prior to July 2002.
