[2] In July 1990, Dzidziguri, then an activist of Zviad Gamsakhurdia-led Round Table coalition, was the principal driving force behind the blockade of a railway junction at Samtredia, mounted by the opposition to pressure the Soviet Georgian government into adopting a liberal election code.
Dzidziguri remained Gamsakhurdia's loyalist after the president's ouster in the January 1992 coup d'état and acted as his envoy in the province of Samegrelo.
[2] After his release, Dzidziguri founded the opposition political organization Union of National Forces, which evolved into the Conservative Party of Georgia.
In 2002, he allied himself with the new opposition leader Mikheil Saakashvili[4] and was elected to the Parliament of Georgia from Samtredia on a joint ticket with Saakashvili-led United National Movement bloc in 2003.
He was energetically involved in the mass demonstrations against Shevardnadze's government which concluded with the Rose Revolution in November 2003 and brought Saakashvili to the presidency of Georgia in January 2004.
