The people of the province observed a 3 day mourning as a mark of respect. His hallmark was that he never used any government resources and preferred his own. As a minister he rented a house in Peshawar and used his own cars, servants etc. He represented the people at various elected posts from 1964 to 1977. His wife survived him and died in Abbottabad in 2019.{{cite news |title=Wife of former CM passes away |url=https://www.dawn.com/news/1511253 |access-date=10 December 2023 |publisher=Dawn |date=17 October 2019}}
