Wasn't there as a politician, says BJP's Manjinder Singh Sirsa on attending Manmohan Singh's funeral
Saturday, 28 December 2024 At the state funeral of ex-PM Manmohan Singh, BJP member Manjinder Singh Sirsa and AAP RS MP Vikramjit Singh Sahney paid their respects through assistance with ceremonial rites. Sirsa, noting a personal connection with Singh, remembered how the former PM had tied his son's first turban. Both expressed deep respect for Singh's mentorship and influence.
Mourners in India's capital gather to pay their respects to former prime minister Manmohan Singh ahead of a state funeral for the man key to the country's economic liberalisation. Singh, who held office from 2004 to 2014, died at the age of 92, prompting seven days of state mourning.

Public outrage has forced the Delhi government to pause its controversial plan to deny fuel to over 62 lakh "End of Life" vehicles — including cars, bikes, trucks, and even vintage automobiles. The now-on-hold EOL policy targeted petrol vehicles older than 15 years and diesel ones older than 10, with fuel stations set to use number plate recognition to block refueling.
But after massive backlash from citizens — especially those with well-maintained older vehicles and valid pollution certificates — the government is rethinking its move. Environment Minister Manjinder Singh Sirsa cited “technological challenges” and announced a shift in focus: targeting poorly-maintained vehicles instead of penalizing all old ones.
