Telangana CM KCR announced that the State Assembly is going to pass a resolution seeking Bharata Ratna to former PM PV Narasimha Rao. In a press note released by the CMO on Friday, KCR lauded PV\u2019s services to the nation and expressed his will to celebrate the former PM\u2019s centenary celebrations on a grand scale.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe will rename Necklace Road as PV Gnana Marg and a memorial museum will be set up in his remembrance. Narasimha Rao garu stood as the beacon of Telangana\u2019s pride and it is our duty to make the world know about him. Time has come to laud the reforms which PV Garu introduced and there is every need to make the future generations remember. We have decided to invite PM Modi and President Ramnath Kovid for the closing ceremony of PV\u2019s centenary celebrations along with Chief Ministers from every state. We are also planning to invite the former presidents of USA along with other religious leaders. A statue of him will be unveiled at Telangana Bhavan in Delhi,\u201d said KCR.<\/p>\n
PV\u2019s birthplace into a tourist centre<\/strong><\/p>\n PV\u2019s birthplace Laknepalli and Vangara where he grew would be developed as tourist centres and places of significance with memorials. KCR\u2019s government has also floated proposals to request the Centre to name Central University after PV.<\/p>\n Congress in defense mode<\/strong><\/p>\n Nobody can forget the ill treatment meted out to PV after his death and the Congress high command\u2019s denial for performing his last rites in Delhi. The recent developments and KCR\u2019s sudden liking for the former PM is creating tremors in Indian National Congress. The party went into self-defence mode and is scratching its head over the past mistakes.<\/p>\n Analysts say that the old guard in Congress party which backed PV will extend their tacit support to TRS. Through the centenary celebrations, KCR will try to gather the support of Brahmin community in Telangana which was neglected by all the previous governments. We have to wait and see whether KCR\u2019s strategy would yield him the desired result or not.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Telangana CM KCR announced that the State Assembly is going to pass a resolution seeking Bharata Ratna to former PM PV Narasimha Rao.
