India has declared seven days of mourning and a state funeral for former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, who passed away at the age of 92. Singh, a key figure in India's economic liberalisation in the 1990s, served from 2004 to 2014. Tributes have poured in from leaders and the public, with the cricket team honoring him during a match. His legacy includes significant economic reforms and a landmark nuclear deal with the U.S., though his second term was marred by corruption scandals and economic challenges.
