3 Motilal Nehru Road: The Retirement Abode of Manmohan Singh

Deccan Chronicle  

NEW DELHI: The sprawling 3 Motilal Nehru Road bungalow in Lutyens’ Delhi served for over 10 years as the retirement abode of former prime minister Manmohan Singh. A spacious Type-VIII bungalow amid the three-acre plot, Dr Singh had moved to this address in the national capital after attending Narendra Modi’s swearing-in ceremony in May 2014. Earlier, the four-bedroom bungalow was the official residence of Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit who had vacated it after her party’s loss in the Delhi Assembly elections. The bungalow was home to about 40 full-grown trees, including peepul, arjun, goolar, marorfalli, jamun, neem, mango and seemal, which shelter about 60 species of birds and mammals, when Singh, accompanied by his wife Gursharan Kaur had moved into this prime address in Lutyens’ Delhi.
