He was a Dalit himself and was a student leader of the Lok Nayak Jai Prakash Narayan movement, during emergency. He, along with other young leaders recognized that a peaceful movement by the Dalit for their own cause could lead to the entitlements and rights of the deprived and the marginalized Dalit. Later, several efforts were made for the rights and entitlements of the Dalits in the state and they were quite successful.

In its initial phase, the organization was working in only 15 villages in the Phulwari Sharif Block of the Patna district. It was working on the issues of Dalit with special reference to their identity and dignity. This led to the community organization processes and thereby, 15 village level groups of Dalits were formed.

Later, minimum wages, bonded labour, atrocities against women, untouchability came up as the issues to be addressed. By the year 1987, it started to work on the Amas block of the Gaya District on similar issues. Further, in 1988, the organization started working in North Bihar, focusing Darbhanga as an intervention area where poverty reduction was the main issue among the Dalits.
