He traveled extensively throughout Karnataka along with Jagannathrao Joshi and built the party brick by brick. He was arrested along with thousands of other Opposition leaders and workers during the Emergency.[2] After the formation of the Janata Party, he became the General Secretary of the state unit of the party. In 1978, he was elected to the Karnataka Legislative Assembly from Hubli-Dharwad. He was one of the founding leaders of the BJP and was the state general secretary of the party, and later its vice president. He groomed many young leaders of the BJP such as B.B. Shivappa, B.S. Yeddyurappa, Ananth Kumar, K.S.Eshwarappa, Jagadish Shettar and others.[3][4]
