Manmohan Singh’s life a reflection of India’s resilient spirit: PM Modi

Hindustan Times  

NEW DELHI: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday recalled his predecessor Manmohan Singh as not just as a leader but as a remarkable human being whose journey from Partition-era displacement to India’s highest office embodied the nation’s resilient spirit as he delivered a eulogy recounting the Congress leader’s achievements as scholar, economist and a leader dedicated to reforms. Modi said Singh, who died at 92 of age-related illnesses on Thursday, was the Reserve Bank of India governor during challenging times and put India on a new economic path as the finance minister in PV Narasimha Rao’s government, overcoming the financial crisis. “His dedication as a Member of Parliament is an inspiration to all.” Modi said Singh rose above partisan politics and remained accessible, recalling his discussions as Gujarat’s chief minister with the then Prime Minister Singh. Modi said he would speak to Singh after becoming prime minister in 2014 and said the two recently spoke in September during the latter’s birthday.
