He was MLA from Ahore in the Jalore district twice in 1977 and 1990.

Known as a gentleman politician, he was a much respected figure in western Rajasthan.

Not a person who hankered after power and position, he devoted more time in the past decade to conservation of water bodies and building of check dams in Jodhpur, Jalore and Pali districts than in politics.

He was one of the founder members of the water conservation NGO, Jal Bhagirathi Foundation.
