Always impeccably dressed, Patil was a hardcore loyalist of the Gandhi dynasty because of which he was given the sensitive post of Union home minister. He commenced his political career as president of the Latur municipality from 1966 and 1970 and was later elected twice to the state assembly where he was elected first as the deputy Speaker and later the Speaker.
