Summary In this paper, an attempt has been made to study the non-uniform self progagation of cylindrical imploding shocks in an electrically conducting gas. The similarity solution has been extended to earlier times in the implosion process when the shock strength is finite and Oshima's quasi similar approximation method is applied to reduce the equations of motion to a set of ordinary differential equations in order to discuss the regularity of the solution.
