==Economy==
:The Indian economy began to bloom within days of discarding several of the old protectionist measures as the GDP and economy grew by an average of 6.5%, a growth rate that was sustained over the entire decade for the first time in the Indian economy. Rao's advocacy of further economic reform lessened by mid-1993.
It's unclear to me over what period the 5.5% average GDP growth rate existed. [[User:Ground|Ground]] 21:16, 23 Dec 2004 (UTC)
::See [[Hindu rate of growth]]. 1950-80's saw India having growth of 3.5%.

==GA on hold==
Please put retrieval dates and titles on your URLs. The titles make them look nicer and the retrieval dates are helpful when links go dead so that you or someone else can get it back via the [[Internet Archive#Wayback_Machine|Wayback Machine]]. I didn't really look at it aside from that.--[[User:Rmky87|Rmky87]] 03:04, 2 March 2007 (UTC)

:OK done.--[[User:Shahab|Shahab]] 07:15, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
::I took it off of hold.--[[User:Rmky87|Rmky87]] 19:06, 9 March 2007 (UTC)

==Failed GA==
The referencing is okay, but please see the [[WP:LoCE]] about the prose. It looks strange, the sort of strange that I can't name. Maybe someone else can.--[[User:Rmky87|Rmky87]] 17:10, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

==Sathya Sai Baba devotee==
If reliable references can be found, it may be appropriate to have small "personal" section about his devotion to [[Sathya Sai Baba]]. I happen to know that Rao is an SSB devotee and I can get some of SSB's speeches where he praised Rao's political actions, but I guess it call comes down to reliable references. [[User:Ekantik|Ekantik]] <sup>[[User talk:Ekantik|talk]]</sup> 15:55, 12 March 2007 (UTC)

== GA review ==

I think the lead can be improved per [[WP:LEAD]] to include a better review of this article, including person's achievements, "corruption", "later life", and where he died --<i>[[User:Rayis|Rayis]]</i> 12:08, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

== GA on hold ==
Sorry if my review overlaps with the person above, but no one marked that they were reviewing this article so took it. Anyway, it is almost there, but I would like to see some things fixed within the next few days:
* There is a lot of stylistic but grammatically incorrect comma usage. Examples are the first sentence and the sentence and "He was a polyglot and could speak 13 languages, including Urdu..." and "When the Indian National Congress split in 1969, Rao remained loyal to Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, and stayed so during the Emergency period (1975 - 77)." Commas are only appropriate to separate clauses when the clause after the comma is a complete sentence.
* It is not clear from reading the article or the citation provided why he is in the Guinness Book of World Records.
* The National security, foreign policy and crisis management heading needs to be prose, not a bulleted list.
* The Corruption items read too much like legal briefs - please just write paragraphs about each case.
* Too many primary sources - for items like his being kidnapped by Kashmiri terrorists, you should find news stories or books instead of articles of parliament.
That's it for now. --[[User:Mus Musculus|Mus Musculus]] ([[User talk:Mus Musculus|talk]]) 05:04, 18 April 2007 (UTC)

Can anyone who knows Telugu please translate the table at the [http://te.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E0%B0%AA%E0%B0%BF.%E0%B0%B5%E0%B0%BF.%E0%B0%A8%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%B8%E0%B0%BF%E0%B0%82%E0%B0%B9%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%B0%E0%B0%BE%E0%B0%B5%E0%B1%81 the Telugu version] of the [[Narasimha Rao]] article to English. Cheers.----[[User:Shahab|Shahab]] 05:26, 24 August 2007 (UTC)

== Quotes ==

The quotes section at the end seems rather churlish and trivial, besides being unsourced. I would suggest deleteing it.

== Speculation... ==

"It is speculated that he was in the running for president" ... This shouldn't be in wikipedia; besides obviously being "speculative", it is weasely, and has been sourced from a newspaper editor's blog. I suggest we remove this line.

This is unencyclopaedic : "This can be considered as the launching of [[Great power#India|India's emergence as a great power]]." IMHO we should remove it.

== Rise in separatist movements ==

By the time PV was into PM position all insurgencies were at their peak (all these were peaked in 1980s). PV solved one of the biggest insurgency facing the country that time (Punjab). Also military has neutralized most of North eastern insurgents. He did to calm the J&K which was aggravated by preceding Rajiv and VP Singh govenments. But the article showing contrasting to the fact none of the references supports the article. [[User:Mghori|Mghori]] ([[User talk:Mghori|talk]]) 08:00, 12 December 2010 (UTC)

== Regarding Hindu muslim riots ==

Regarding the line, "Rao's term also saw the destruction of the [[Babri Mosque]] in Ayodhya which triggered one of the worst Hindu-Muslim riots in the country since its independence.", in the introduction. The proof that there were hindu muslim riots has not been quoted. BBC report does not in itself refer to any statistics of people dead or injured and thus this sentence cannot be used. In addition the BBC report quotes it is the worst riots which has not been substantiated. BBC is not a legal constitutional body whose reports can be quoted regarding riots without statistics. I would suggest that this sentence be removed and only the incident of Babri masjid demolition be presented where the reference is made to a legal proceeding. <small><span class="autosigned">— Preceding [[Wikipedia:Signatures|unsigned]] comment added by [[User:Sailpra|Sailpra]] ([[User talk:Sailpra|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Sailpra|contribs]]) 19:30, 3 March 2012 (UTC)</span></small><!-- Template:Unsigned --> <!--Autosigned by SineBot-->

{{Section sizes}}
This picture does not belong here. This is a biography of a former prime minister very well known for other reasons than being the PM when the mosque was torn down. Even if it was the only best known fact about him, which is most obviously not, mentioning the issue in the article is sufficient. If there are no other concerns I will go ahead and delete the pic from this article in a week.[[User:Lone.Wolf|Lone.Wolf]] ([[User talk:Lone.Wolf|talk]]) 14:32, 8 April 2012 (UTC)<br>
