Because of his modesty and refusal to run banner headlines about his achievements, it was easy to overlook his contributions. Now, with his passing, and in hindsight, it is becoming clear how lucky India was to have had a leader like him.
He was a rare politician – a person of outstanding intellect and moral integrity, and the architect of India's most important reforms, from 1991 to 1993. These were transformative for India. One can see this from the pick-up in India's growth rate following the reforms, and the arrival of Indians on the global stage. Today, in the United States (US) and Europe, some of the most prominent researchers, corporate leaders and policymakers are from India. This is the result of our early investment in science and engineering, and the opening up of the economy in the early 1990s initiated by Dr Singh. I have no doubt in my mind that he will go down in history as one of not just India's but the world's most important leaders.
