It’s a matter of great delight that the highest civilian award of Bharat Ratna is being conferred upon former Prime Ministers Late Shri PV Narasimha Rao ji, Late Shri Chaudhary Charan Singh ji, and Late Shri MS Swaminathan ji.
As iconic figures in Indian history, they have left an indelible mark in their respective fields. Late Shri Rao is credited with spearheading economic reforms that liberalized our economy in the early 1990s, transforming the country’s economic landscape.
Late Shri Chaudhary Charan Singh ji was a champion of farmers’ rights and rural development, advocating for policies to uplift the agrarian sector and empower rural communities. Late Shri Swaminathan ji, renowned as the ‘Father of the Green Revolution in India,’ revolutionized agricultural practices, significantly increasing food production and alleviating hunger across the nation.
Bharat Ratna is a befitting tribute to their invaluable contributions to the nation’s progress and prosperity.
