Singh was first elected in 1968 as independent legislator from the Ror-dominated Nilokheri segment in the district, and re-elected in 1982. He then joined the Congress and became transport minister in the-then Bhajan-Lal government.
His younger son, Lalit Kumar Butana, is a member of Haryana Staff Selection Commission.
