Former Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh has died at the age of 92. Singh was one of India's longest-serving prime ministers and he was considered the architect of key liberalising economic reforms,

Manmohan Singh, the former Prime Minister of India known for his pivotal role in the country's economic liberalization in the early 1990s, passed away at the age of 92. Singh, who served as India's finance minister before becoming Prime Minister from 2004 to 2014, was instrumental in dismantling the License Raj, a system of extensive government regulation and control over the economy. His reforms opened up the Indian economy to global markets, significantly reducing tariffs and fostering foreign investment, which set the stage for India's economic growth. Despite his economic achievements, his tenure as Prime Minister was also marked by controversies, including corruption scandals that affected his party's image. Singh was remembered for his integrity, humility, and scholarly approach to governance, leaving behind a legacy of economic transformation in India.
