Former Prime Minister of India, Manmohan Singh, passed away on Thursday night at the age of 92. The announcement was made by doctors at the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), Delhi, who confirmed that he breathed his last at 9:51 PM. Manmohan Singh, who had been suffering from age-related health issues, lost consciousness at his residence earlier in the evening. Family members rushed him to the hospital at 8:06 PM. Despite the best efforts by medical professionals, he could not be revived, according to the hospital's health bulletin.

The former Prime Minister had been battling multiple age-related health complications, including a severe respiratory illness. Reports indicate that he had been undergoing frequent check-ups at various hospitals for treatment related to his respiratory condition. On Thursday, Singh experienced severe breathing difficulties and was admitted to AIIMS in a critical state. Doctors provided emergency medical attention but were unable to save his life.

Respiratory illnesses, such as the one Singh suffered from, often severely impact the lungs and other parts of the respiratory system. These conditions lead to a gradual decline in health and are primarily caused by air pollution and other infections.

Manmohan Singh, a towering figure in Indian politics and an economist of international repute, served as the Prime Minister of India from 2004 to 2014. His demise marks the end of an era in Indian public life.
