Explanation

P. V. Narasimha Rao became Prime Minister on June 21, 1991, after Rajiv Gandhi's assassination and Congress's election victory. His tenure is historically significant for launching India's economic liberalization reforms in 1991, which transformed India's economy. He served a full 5-year term until May 16, 1996, becoming the first Congress PM outside the Nehru-Gandhi family to complete a full term. Soniya Gandhi entered politics much later, and Vajpayee became PM in 1996 and later.
