He served as Minister for Public works in the Unionist Muslim League government. Dismissed in 1944 for his increasingly pro Jinnah policies, he was subsequently elected deputy leader of the Punjab League. Re-elected in 1946, he became a prominent activist in the Muslim League direct action campaign. Elected again from Attock in the 1970 general elections, he played a key role in the opposition negotiations with Zulfiqar Bhutto which led to the passage of Pakistan's first interim constitution.
