India's former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, widely regarded as the architect of India's economic reform program and a landmark nuclear deal with the United States, has died. He was 92.
Singh was admitted to New Delhi's All India Institute of Medical Sciences late Thursday after his health deteriorated due to a "sudden loss of consciousness at home," the hospital said in a statement.
"Resuscitative measures were started immediately at home. He was brought to the Medical Emergency" at 8:06 p.m., the hospital said, but "despite all efforts, he could not be revived and was declared dead at 9:51 p.m."
