Manmohan Singh was born on September 26, 1932, in Gah. His early years were shaped by the tumult of the Partition of India, during which his family, like millions of others, was displaced. They relocated to India and eventually settled in Amritsar.

Gah, a quiet village 100 km southwest of Pakistan's Islamabad, is mourning the loss of its most notable former resident, Manmohan Singh, India’s former prime minister. Fondly remembered as "Mohna," Singh’s early years in the village and his journey to becoming a global leader remain a source of pride for the community.

Former Indian Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh, deeply connected to his ancestral village Gah in Pakistan, faced tragedy there, impacting his decision never to return. His legacy includes efforts towards Indo-Pak harmony and is fondly remembered by villagers mourning his passing at age 92 in Delhi.
