Thus, it recognizes all the Prime Ministers, thereby democratizing the institutional memory," the release said.Chairman, Executive Council, Nripendra Misra in his welcome address explained the need for a change in name by emphasizing that the Prime Ministers' Museum expresses the nation's deep commitment to democracy and so the name of the institution should reflect its new form.Defence Minister, Rajnath Singh, Vice-President of the Society in his address welcomed the proposal for change in name since in its new form the institution exhibits the contributions of all prime ministers from Jawaharlal Nehru to Narendra Modi and their responses to various challenges faced by them, the release read.Describing Prime Ministers as an institution and comparing the journey of various prime ministers to the varied colours of a rainbow, Rajnath Singh emphasized that all the colours of a rainbow have to be proportionately represented in order to make it beautiful.Thus the resolution has given a new name, and respect to all our previous prime ministers and is democratic in content, the release stated.Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
