The funeral procession of former Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh began from Congress headquarters, with tributes paid by Congress leaders and dignitaries. Singh will be cremated with full state honours at Nigambodh Ghat in New Delhi, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi attending the ceremony. A seven-day national mourning has been declared, with flags at half-mast across India. The Centre has agreed to allocate space for Singh's memorial, following a dispute between BJP and Congress. Singh, a key architect of India’s economic liberalisation, passed away recently, leaving a lasting legacy.
