During the different phases of his political career, he worked in close association with Muzaffar Ahmad, Ajoy Kumar Ghosh and Harkishan Singh Surjeet.<br/><br/>During the partition, NSD led numerous campaigns for the prevention of communal riots and rehabilitation of refugees. Remaining underground for five years (1948-52) when the CPI was banned, he organized hundreds of workers at the Bhakra Dam site and led the muzara movement of Una to its logical end. Following the split of 1964, he joined the CPM and began to build the party from below.<br/><br/>For nearly five decades, NSD remained involved in the struggles of the toiling masses, propagating Marxism and developing communist cadres.
