Narasimha Rao on June 27 which will include an exhibition showcasing a collection of rare photographs, official documents, speeches, correspondence and archival material tracing the journey of the late former PM. As a part of its regular activities, Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya showcases the lives, vision and contributions of various Prime Ministers of India since independence and has started celebrating the birthdays of various Prime Ministers.
The 105th birth anniversary of the former Prime Minister P.V. Narasimha Rao is being celebrated at Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya on June 27, 2026, the PMML said in a statement. Rao was born on June 28, 1921, in Warangal district of present-day Telangana. The exhibits will highlight his leadership during a critical phase in India’s history and his role in introducing the landmark economic reforms of liberalisation, privatisation, and globalisation that transformed the nation’s economic landscape.
The exhibition will also explore Mr. Rao’s multi-faceted personality as a scholar, freedom fighter, reformer, and visionary statesman. Visitors will gain insights into his contributions to governance, diplomacy, economic transformation, and nation-building, as well as his intellectual and literary pursuits. The exhibition will also feature selected archival records, personal correspondence, speeches, photographs, and audio-visual presentations that will provide visitors with a deeper understanding of the life, vision, and legacy of Mr. Rao.
Through this exhibition, Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya aims to celebrate the enduring legacy of the statesman often remembered as the architect of modern, globalised India and to promote greater awareness of his contributions among students, researchers, and the general public, a senior official of the Culture Ministry said. The exhibition will be open to visitors from June 27 onwards at Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya, New Delhi.
