He strongly opposed the imposition of Emergency in country and actively participated in protests and evaded the arrests by remaining in disguise in Chandigarh, Haryana and several other places.
Being staunch opponent of the Article 370, Prof Gupta fought for the abrogation of this obnoxious provision throughout his life before finally achieving it on August 5, 2019 when Prime Minister Narendra Modi led dispensation at centre abrogated it.
