“Despite the Congress party failing to show minimum respect to a leader who served the party for decades, Chandrashekhar Rao has ensured that PVNR’s legacy lives on, not just in India but overseas as well,” TRS Australia president Kasarla Nagender Reddy said, adding that the Telangana Chief Minister’s tribute to Narasimha Rao was a symbol of honour in contemporary politics.
Nagender Reddy also expressed hope that Chandrashekhar Rao would emerge an undisputed leader on the national political landscape.
A large number of people from Melbourne, Brisbane, Perth and Adelaide, among others attended the unveiling of the statue in Sydney, with a meeting also held later at Strathfield Town Hall to commemorate Narasimha Rao and his contribution towards the development of India.
