Later, he was active as a trade-union organiser and in 1968 led a successful strike demanding implementation of the recommendations of the Third Pay Commission for government employees. He later became a full-time trade-union worker. He also organised Adivasis and peasants from Raigad district in the Konkan region during the Emergency. He was elected to the Maharashtra Assembly from Dharavi in Bombay in 1978 and, as MLA, worked for the slum dwellers of the area. He wrote in and edited several Party journals, and authored several books, including an important work on the problems of housing for the working class, a book on the caste question and one on Ambedkar’s life as a student.
