Dr Manmohan Singh's reforms redefined India's trajectory as a rising global power

Deccan Chronicle  

New Delhi: Former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, who breathed his last on Thursday night, had a legacy of economic reforms in India. REACTIONS: Recalling Dr Singh's contributions as the architect of India's economic reforms, RBI Governor Sanjay Malhotra said on Friday that India’s economic reforms have left an indelible mark. Former RBI governor Urjit Patel also said Dr Singh was rightly described as the architect of India's reforms and that he was very supportive of the central bank, having been at its helm himself. Former RBI governors like Raghuram Rajan and Duvvuri Subbarao, also paid glowing tributes to Manmohan Singh’s pivotal role in shaping India’s economic trajectory. Former World Bank chief economist Kaushik Basu, who was chief economic adviser to the government of India from 2009-12 also said that Dr Singh’s sharp intellect, innate modesty, and personal integrity— qualities rarely found in politics— will be remembered as one of the greatest political leaders not only in India but also globally.
