Remembering the former Prime Minister and Telangana’s son of soil PV Narasimha Rao on his birth anniversary, minister KT Rama Rao remembered his services to the nation. KTR said that PV Narasimha Rao was the most effective and efficient Prime Minister since independence of India.
Asserting that Narasimha Rao truly deserved to be Bharat Ratna, KTR said, “It’s a matter of great pride to remember him and recognise his tremendous contributions to the country on his birth anniversary.”
KTR also took a dig at the Congress party for insulting Narasimha Rao, the man behind economic reforms in India. “He was also the most underrated and undermined PM; both by Indian media and his own political party that insulted him in life and even after he passed away,” KTR added.
While the Congress Party ill-treated their own partyman who steered the county through difficult times, the BRS Party paid a rich tribute to his legacy by making Narasimha Rao’s daughter a Member of Legislative Council (MLC). Earlier, Telangana government had grandly organised the centenary celebrations of Narasimha Rao in 2021 and installed 26-feet statue of Rao on Necklace Road. The State government has rechristened the name of Necklace Road as PVNR Marg in honour of the former Prime Minister and also planning to set up a memorial near PV Gnana Bhoomi in Hyderabad.
