At the Second Congress of the CPI in 1948, he was elected to the Central Committee of the party. In June 1950, was inducted into the party politburo. He was one among the four member Indian Communist delegation who met Joseph Stalin clandestinely in 1950 to receive his advice on whether to continue the Telangana Rebellion or not.[citation needed]
