Rich tributes were paid to the late Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao on his 19th death anniversary on Saturday, with Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and a host of other leaders from various political parties recalling his contribution to the country.
Mr. Revanth Reddy was accompanied by his ministerial colleagues D. Sridhar Babu, Komatireddy Venkat Reddy, and D. Anasuya (Seethakka), among others, during his visit to PV Gnana Bhoomi.
The Chief Minister termed the late PM as a great intellectual who propagated India’s popularity across the world and took bold decisions when the country’s economy was in dire straits. He also recalled what the former PM used to say about mortgaging gold for borrowings. Quoting the late leader, he said, “Wise people mortgage half of the property to save the remaining half if necessary.”
