He was elected to the [[Karnataka Legislative Assembly]] for the first time in 1972 beating B. C. Patil of the [[Indian National Congress (Organisation)]] by over 11,000 votes. The 1985 elections was more hard-fought as he won against Patil Basanagouda Guranagouda of the [[Janata Party]] by 700 votes, narrowly winning the seat. The following election of 1989 he won against the [[Janata Dal]] candidate Karjigi Veerappa Sannatammappa by about 2,800 votes. In the 1994 elections he lost to Karjagi Veerappa Sannatammappa by about 25,000 votes due to the 10-year anti-incumbency of the Congress rule in the state. Koliwadi once again retained the [[Ranibennur]] Legislative Assembly seat by beating Tilavalli Shivanna Gurappa of the [[Janata Dal (United)]] by about 5,000 votes. In 2004 and 2008 he lost both times to Tilavalli Shivanna Gurappa who had joined the [[Bharatiya Janata Party]] by then. In 2013 he won the [[Ranibennur]] Assembly seat back against R. Shankar who was an independent candidate by about 6,000 votes .In 2018 assembly elections he lost to R.Shanker of KPJP by about 4000 votes.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.elections.in/karnataka/assembly-constituencies/ranibennur.html | title=Sitting and previous MLAs from Ranibennur Assembly Constituency | work=.elections.in | accessdate=3 November 2016}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Koliwad is also a member of the Pradesh election committee in the Karnataka [[Indian National Congress]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | url=http://www.kpcc.harryandlouit.com/kpcc/pdf/office.pdf | title=kpcc | work=.kpcc.harryandlouit.com | accessdate=5 November 2016}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
