Speaking on the occasion, he said Narasimha Rao, by introducing reforms in different sectors, especially the administrative sector, had emerged as a role model. He was instrumental in ensuring land for the poor and laid foundation for distribution of lands for the weaker sections. He was an exemplary person and India’s popularity increased manifold times across the globe due to his intellect and vision, the Chief Minister said.

“PV Narasimha Rao took bold decisions when the nation’s economy was in dire straits and introduced revolutionary changes in the administration,” Revanth Reddy said, adding that the State government would take up the responsibility of developing the memorials of former Narasimha Rao and former union Minister S Jaipal Reddy. The two leaders were valuable sons of the soil for Telangana, he said.
