Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh passed away due to age-related medical issues at 92. The last rites will be performed at the Nigam Bodh Ghat in Delhi on December 28, Saturday from 11:45 am with State Honours.
Congress chief Mallikarjun Kharge spoke to Prime Minister Narendra Modi about the possibility of building a memorial to Manmohan Singh at the same site where the last rites would be held.
‘Apropos our telephonic conversation this morning, wherein I requested to hold Dr. Manmohan Singh’s last rites, which will take place tomorrow i.e. 28th December 2024, at his final resting place that would be a sacrosanct venue for a memorial of the great son of India. This is in keeping with such tradition of having memorials of statesmen and former prime ministers at the very place of their funerals,’ Mr Kharge said in the letter to the Prime minister.
“In view of the foregoing, I hope and trust that befitting the stature of Dr. Manmohan Singh, the above request to have the funeral of Dr Manmohan Singh at a place where his memorial can be built, will be acceded,” the Congress chief said in the letter to PM Modi, Congress posted on X.
