He was elected to the Provincial Assembly of the Punjab from Constituency PP-226 (Sahiwal-VII) as a candidate of the National Alliance in 2002 Pakistani general election. He received 33,693 votes and defeated Mian Asad Masood, a candidate of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP).[2]

In March, 2021 Langrial became a part of a dissenting group from the PTI called the Jahangir Tareen group.
