My daughters' father-in-law, Sri BoppaRaju Srinivasa Rao, gave me a book titled “POETRY TO POLITICS .” Tributes to PV Narasimha Rao, which I have finished reading. It is a compilation of essays written by PVRK Prasad, K.Ramachandra Murthy,, Surabhi Vani Devi, G Narayan Chetty (IAS, Rtd), Pendyala Vaman Rao, Adiraju Venkateshwara Rao, etc. It contains a total of 21 essays, very interesting to read, people need to know about this unique intellectual, who was down to earth in approach to the social and political issues. Pamulaparthi Venkata Narasimha Rao popularly known as PV, he was an astute politician, with extraordinary political acumen, rose from remote Telangana village to become PM of the country who unleashed reforms in the Indian Economy. The country had never looked back since then. All the PMs who followed PV have been following the path shown by him, irrespective of the parties they represented and ideologies they professed.
