New Delhi, Dec 27 (Reporter) Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge on Friday urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to build a memorial of former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh at his final resting place, as he is highly revered in the country. In a letter to the Prime Minister, Kharge said the request is "in keeping with such tradition of having memorials of statesmen and former Prime Ministers at the very place of their funerals". He said the contribution of Dr Singh was "phenomenal". "His erudition on economic and fiscal matters came from his vast experience as Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, Chief Economic Advisor to the Government of India and various other capacities in several organisations," Kharge said. Recalling Dr Singh's contributions, Kharge said, "When the nation was in throes of grave economic crisis, it was Dr Manmohan Singh as Finance Minister, who took India out of the crisis and also led the country towards economic prosperity and stability. The nation today reaps the benefits of the robust economic foundations built by them". "In view of the foregoing, I hope and trust that befitting the stature of Dr Manmohan Singh, the above request to have the funeral of Dr Manmohan Singh at a place where his memorial can be built, will be acceded," Kharge said...////...
