February 2024On February 9th 2024 the Indian Government announced Bharat Ratna award to former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao. Mr. Rao is recognized as the architect of liberalization of the Indian economy, which has fueled incredible economic growth during the last 3 decades. Bharat Ratna is the highest civilian award in India.
Pamulaparthi Venkata Narasimha Rao (28 June 1921 – 23 December 2004), popularly known as P. V. Narasimha Rao, was an Indian lawyer, statesman and politician who served as the 9th prime minister of India from 1991 to 1996.
A number of USA based NRI organizations are delighted with the award announcement. During the last several years these organizations and their leaders (including Michigan Indian community members) had dedicated significant time and effort to make recommendations to the Indian government.
They feel that the announcement finally recognizes Mr. Rao's transformational and bold leadership in making an impact on millions of Indians.
