In 1942,he was sent to Mungawali Jail for participating in quit India movement. When the Provincial Government for Central Provinces was formed in 1948,he was chosen as the minister for Revenue,Food and Agriculture,Jagirs department. He successfully negotiated with Maharaja of Gwalior over estates and Jagirs. He also served at various posts of Ujjain and Gwalior State Congress Committee.

In 1952,through first general elections,he was elected to the lower House of Parliament,the Lok Sabha,from Ujjain,Gwalior state,Madhya Bharat,India as a member of the Indian National Congress. He went on to win two more consecutive elections to Lok Sabha from Ujjain,Madhya Pradesh in the 1957 and 1962 elections.

Although India is a parliamentary democracy,the country's politics has become dynastic or with high level of nepotism,possibly due to the absence of party organizations,independent civil-society associations which mobilize support for a party,or centralized financing of elections. The dynastic phenomenon is present at the national,state,regional,and district level. The Nehru–Gandhi family has produced three Indian prime ministers,and family members have largely led the Congress party since 1978. The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) also has several dynastic leaders. In addition to the major national parties,other national and regional parties such as Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (DMK),Shiromani Akali Dal,Shiv Sena,Samajwadi Party,Rashtriya Janata Dal,Janata Dal Secular,Jharkhand Mukti Morcha,Kerala Congress,Jammu &Kashmir National Conference,Indian Union Muslim League,AIMIM,and the Nationalist Congress Party are all dominated by families,mostly those of the party founders.
