Jelgrun was a member of the Bijani House of Representatives from 1981 until 2013, representing Kijuri County. He served as a Minister in the 3rd Ornam Government from 1985 to 1988. In the late 1980s, Jelgrun was an early proponent of a merger between the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), of which he was a member, and the Bijani National Party (BNP). This put him at odds with Ornam's successor as Chief Minister, Ĉeso Dukan and Markom Hikoro, and he was not appointed to a ministerial position in either's government. Jelgrun was re-appointed to the Government in 1992, under Chief Minister Renar Mavasi, and was instrumental in merging the LDP and the BNP into the new Liberal National Party later that year.

abstract
  • Jelgrun was a member of the Bijani House of Representatives from 1981 until 2013, representing Kijuri County. He served as a Minister in the 3rd Ornam Government from 1985 to 1988. In the late 1980s, Jelgrun was an early proponent of a merger between the Liberal Democratic Party (LDP), of which he was a member, and the Bijani National Party (BNP). This put him at odds with Ornam's successor as Chief Minister, Ĉeso Dukan and Markom Hikoro, and he was not appointed to a ministerial position in either's government. Jelgrun was re-appointed to the Government in 1992, under Chief Minister Renar Mavasi, and was instrumental in merging the LDP and the BNP into the new Liberal National Party later that year. The LNP won 90 out of 173 seats in the 1993 general election, an outright majority, and Mavasi was reappointed Chief Minister, with Jelgrun as First Deputy. In a leadership ballot held on May 2, 1994, however, Jelgrun was elected leader of the Liberal National Party, replacing Mavasi as leader, and as Chief Minister the following day. At the 1997 general election, Jelgrun's first as Chief Minister, the LNP were left 20 seats short of a majority, and entered into a coalition with One Nation. The LNP and One Nation were returned to government at general elections in 2001 and 2005. Jelgrun's coalition government was defeated at the 2009 general election by a three-party coalition led by Jakovo Ostaras of the Social Democratic Party. Jelgrun himself was re-elected in 2009, but retired from politics in 2013.
