  • He was the undisputed leader acceptable to the factions in Kerala church.
  • He was the second Vicar General of Syro-Malabar Catholic Church. He founded Nazranee Deepika, which was the forerunner of today's Deepika newspaper, and was instrumental in the founding of another newspaper, the Malayala Manorama.
