In his memoir “A Promised Land”, former US President Barack Obama paid tribute to Manmohan Singh describing him as a “man with uncommon wisdom”.

A case has been registered against four people for using forged documents to manipulate voter registration in the Okhla Assembly Constituency, ahead of the Delhi polls.

Months before stepping down in 2014, Manmohan Singh asserted his leadership was not weak and would be judged kindly by history.

Singh defended his record, addressing compromises as peripheral, not affecting national issues.
