He began the Bombey State Minister in 1952, and later played a major role, such as the Minister of Trade and Industry in 1956 and the Finance Minister in 1958. In 1967, he was appointed Deputy Prime Minister at Indir Gandhi, but parted with her with disagreements.
During an emergency in 1975, the dessa was imprisoned, like many opposition leaders. After his release in 1977, he led the Gianata Party to the historical victory, becoming the prime minister at the age of 81.
