NEW DELHI: During his tenure as prime minister, Manmohan Singh “tried very hard” to establish “some kind of peace” with Pakistan but it didn’t work, former deputy NSA and his then-close aide Pankaj Saran said.
Singh, the architect of India’s economic reforms, died here at the age of 92 late on Thursday.
Saran on Thursday termed Singh’s passing as “very unfortunate”, and described him as an intellectual, an economist of world standing, but also a “man who symbolised humility”.
