In 1932, at a young age, he moved to Ahmedabad and worked with Rustom Cama, a notable figure from Ahmedabad. He was unable to study during his childhood, therefore, as an adult, he decided to open schools and universities, beginning in his home village. Fundraising has allowed the foundation of the Jan Sewa Ashram schools. His death on March 28, 1983, is commemorated every year at his schools.
