Manmohan Singh, who served as the prime minister of India before Narendra Modi, retired from public life after a long and illustrious career. Throughout his time in politics, Singh held various positions such as chief economist, central bank governor, finance minister, and foreign minister. Despite some disappointment from those who expected more from him, it is undeniable that India’s current success can be attributed to the reforms he implemented.
Singh played a crucial role in the economic liberalization that has helped lift many people in India out of poverty. His dedication to implementing policies that encouraged growth and progress has had a lasting impact on the country. However, some may argue that there has been a loss of momentum and energy in the Indian economy since Singh’s time as a key policymaker in the 1990s and 2000s.
Despite any setbacks, Singh’s contributions to India’s economic development cannot be understated. His retirement marks the end of an era in Indian politics but his influence and impact will continue to be felt for years to come. As one of the most respected figures in Indian politics, Singh leaves behind a legacy that will inspire future generations to follow his footsteps and make a positive impact on society.
