Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, known as the architect of India’s economic reforms and for his interest in Urdu poetry, passed away after prolonged illness. He often engaged in poetic exchanges during parliamentary debates, notably with Sushma Swaraj, illustrating his unique approach to political discourse.

US Secretary of State Antony Blinken called Manmohan Singh a “champion of the US-India strategic partnership” and reflected on his role in advancing the Civil Nuclear Cooperation Agreement.
