V. Subbiah was born in Puducherry on February 7, 1911. A well-known politician in the region, V. Subbiah led the trade union movement. He was so inspired by Mahatma Gandhi at the start of his political career that he joined the Indian National Congress. When Subbiah established the French India Youth League in 1931, he started to take an active role in public life.
V. Subbiah was appointed secretary of the Puducherry chapter of the All-India Harijan Seva Sangh on February 17, 1934. In his daily existence, he lived according to Gandhian ideals. He interacted with textile workers, the majority of whom belonged to the oppressed classes, while serving as the sangh's secretary. In Madras, he also met leaders who were coordinating worker activities against the British, including as F. Sundarayya and Amir Hyder Khan. He was instrumental in spearheading Puducherry's revolutionary trade union movement. He was appointed secretary of the Madras Mahajan Sabha in August 1937.
Subbiah's role in energizing the working class and incorporating them into the liberation movement continues to be crucial to the Indian freedom movement. It also played a major part in Puducherry's independence from French colonization.
