Barindra Kumar Ghosh or Barindra Ghosh, or popularly Barin Ghosh (5 January 1880 – 18 April 1959), was an Indian Bengali revolutionary and journalist. In 1906, he founded the Bengali weekly Jugantar Patrika and later started a revolutionary group of the same name to further the revolutionary activities for the liberation of India. He was the younger brother of Sri Aurobindo. In 1908, Barindra was arrested, along with his 33 co-workers, and sentenced to death. On appeal, he was sent to life imprisonment. After serving 10 years, he was released as part of Montague-Chelmsford reforms.

He later edited the Bengali weekly Bejoli, the English weekly The Dawn of India, and the Bengali daily Dainik Basumati. Among his other notable works are The Tale of My Exile (1922), Pather Ingit (1930), and the memoir Barinder Atmakatha.
