Watching Dr. D. Subbarao, former Governor of RBI and a proud alumnus of Rau's IAS, share his journey is truly inspiring. His reflections on his experience in the bureaucracy, particularly his tenure as RBI Governor, highlight the significance of strong leadership and sound economic policies. It's amazing to hear how the guidance and values imparted by S. Rau sir played a pivotal role in his success, helping him secure Rank 1 in the 1972 IAS exam. Rau's IAS continues to uphold these values, nurturing future leaders with the same dedication and excellence. Thank you, Dr. Subbarao, for sharing your remarkable journey and the lasting impact of Rau's IAS.

जब उपलब्धियाँ पहाड़ सी ऊँचाइयों तक पहुँच जाएँ और स्वभाव फिर भी नदी की सरलता बनाए रखे, तब ही सच्ची महानता की पहचान होती है। दुव्वुरी सुब्बाराव सर और बासवा सर जैसे व्यक्तित्वों में यह संयम और विनम्रता ही है जो उन्हें वास्तव में बड़ा बनाती है। 0:37
