Born in the remote village of Laddagiri in Kurnool district to the family of a landlord, he began his involvement in politics at gram panchayath level and rose to be involved at national level. He graduated in law but rarely practised due to his political workload. He represented several assembly constituencies in the district but his major breakthrough came in when he was elected as chairman of Zilla Parishad. He held several posts both in the Indian National Congress party and in central and state governments. He is credited as the man of value based politics. After his death "kisanghat" was erected in his memory by the state government.
