"The darkest places in hell are reserved for those who maintain their neutrality at times of moral crisis" will our ex-PM will be judged on the basis of these lines as the last 10 years of UPA has been considered as no less than crisis time ( and ironically that quote is by an Italian poet Dante Alighieri !)
Or Will history be kind to the world class economist, who first introduced economic liberalization in India in '91. The ethical economist who offered his resignation at the time of Harshad mehta scam when accused of 'sleeping through the scam'. What happened to him later that he couldn't resign or say NO to the UPA govt. when they were misusing/mishandling him?
He was known to be an apolitical person, who ate frugally, loved his fish & dal-rice, and someone who was never idle, spending most of his time reading. If there was one man qualified enough to be the Prime Minister of India, Dr. Manmohan Singh was your man. It was his tenure during the PV Rao administration that made this low-profile, simple politician an extremely popular personality in the upper-class political circles; so much so that 13 years later Mrs. Gandhi handpicked this former academician to be the Prime Minister of India and made him puppet.

Forbes quoted him as the 'Underacheiver' while some quoted him as the 'Weakest PM ever' of India. He claims that his life is an open book but forgets to mention that half the pages of that book are empty (as silent as himself ) and the conclusion of which is written by Narendra Modi. Let's see how history treats our honorable ex-PM, for now let's give him a gentleman's farewell as he deserves it.
