New Delhi/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi has condoled the passing away of eminent statesman and former Prime Minister of Japan Yasuhiro Nakasone.

“Condolences on the demise of eminent statesman and former Prime Minister of Japan, Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone. We will always remember his pathbreaking visit to India, which was the first by a Japanese PM after a gap of 23 years," Modi said in his statement.

"Mr. Yasuhiro Nakasone’s contribution to the enrichment of our bilateral relations is valuable. He will be remembered as an architect of the contemporary India Japan friendship”, the Prime Minister said," he added.

Nakasone was a Japanese politician who served as Prime Minister of Japan and President of the Liberal Democratic Party from 1982 to 1987.

He was a member of the House of Representatives for more than 50 years.

He was best known for pushing through the privatization of state-owned companies, and for helping to revitalize Japanese nationalism during and after his term as prime minister.
