He contested his first election from Kishanganj in 1998 securing 230,210 votes in a losing cause. He helped Bhagalpur to be named under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Smart Cities Scheme. Due to his efforts,Dibrugarh Rajdhani Express got a halt at Naughachia Railway station.[6][7]

On 21 January 2021, Hussain was elected unopposed to Bihar Legislative Council.[2] On 9 February 2021, Hussain was inducted as a cabinet minister in the Nitish Kumar ministry.[8]

He now finds himself in an awkward position, not being able to secure a seat for himself even as he sits on this all-important panel with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, BJP chief Amit Shah and bigwigs like Rajnath Singh, Arun Jaitley, Sushma Swaraj, Nitin Gadkari and Shivraj Singh Chouhan.
