Former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh passed away in New Delhi last night. He was 92. Dr Singh breathed his last at All India Institute of Medical Sciences, Delhi. He was admitted to the Emergency ward of AIIMS around 8 PM in a critical condition. The former Prime Minister had a sudden loss of consciousness at home yesterday evening. An AIIMS bulletin said, despite all efforts, he could not be revived and was declared dead at 9.51 PM. Dr Singh had been in poor health for the last few months. He is survived by his wife Gursharan Kaur and three daughters. Dr Singh, who was finance minister under the then prime minister PV Narasimha Rao, is considered the architect of economic reforms in 1991 that ushered in an era of economic liberalisation.
