Union minister Jitendra Singh on Thursday condoled the demise of former prime minister Manmohan Singh and said that India has lost a multifaceted personality who earned a global recognition.
“Today I have the conviction to say that more than a former Prime Minister, India has lost a multifaceted personality… an academician who earned global recognition, an economist who went down in history for giving a different turn to economic culture in India,” he said in a post on X.
The Union Minister of State for Personnel said that Manmohan Singh was a statesman who for 10 years presided over a “Congress-led government blemished with a series of scams & scandals” and yet there was “never a single insinuation on him”.
