A Tribute to the Visionary Architect of Modern Indian Economy It is with profound sorrow that we mourn the loss of Dr. Manmohan Singh, a stalwart leader, an extraordinary economist, and the architect of India’s economic liberalization. ▶ As the Finance Minister in the 1990s, he introduced revolutionary economic reforms that opened the doors to globalization, transforming India's economy. ▶ These reforms paved the way for unprecedented growth, increased investments, and job creation, lifting millions out of poverty. ▶ As Prime Minister, he ensured economic stability while promoting inclusive development, steering the nation through global financial challenges. ▶ Under his leadership, India witnessed a surge in global recognition as a strong economic force on the world stage. ▶ Dr. Singh's intellectual brilliance, integrity, and unwavering dedication to the nation have left an indelible mark, shaping India into a formidable global economic power. India has lost a visionary, but his legacy will forever remain a guiding light for generations to come. Rest in peace, Dr. Manmohan Singh Sir. Your contributions to the nation will never be forgotten.
