Former Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh, who governed the country for two terms and liberalised its economy in an earlier stint as finance minister, has died at the age of 92, local media reported on Thursday.
Singh, an economist-turned-politician who also served as the governor of the central bank, was ailing and admitted to the All India Institute of Medical Sciences in New Delhi, local media reported.
He was very keen to convert Siachen into “a mountain of peace” after visiting the glacial heights in June 2005.
