Narsimha Rao with best of efforts had failed to win the hearts of Muslims of India and the damage he had done to the secular politics and governance of India still remain an unpardonable act in their eyes.

government at the centre, headed by PV Narsimha Rao , set up a Commission of Inquiry under justice Liberhan.
