 Commanding Heights : Manmohan Singh on PBS
MANMOHAN SINGH: Let me say that I think the economic history of the last 150 years clearly shows that if you want to industrialize a country in a short period, let us say 20 years, and you don't have a well-developed private sector, entrepreneurial class, [then central planning is important].
MANMOHAN SINGH: We removed a large number of controls and regulations, which in the past had stifled the spirit of innovation, the spirit of entrepreneurship, and restricted the scope for competition, both internal competition and external competition.
MANMOHAN SINGH: Yes, I think India and South Korea are roughly the same per capita income in 1960, and in 40 years time Korea has become a member of the OECD [Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development], and we are where we are.

 Harry Singhs Original Caribbean Restaurant
Harry Singh’s Original Caribbean Restaurant specializes in Caribbean comfort foods: roasty, long-cooked comfort foods that, Caribbean though they be, bear a family resemblance to any Midwestern grandma's best pot roast, because of their all-day-on-the-stove essence.
At a time when anything that came without a side of mashed potatoes was called ethnic food, Harry Singh opened the first of his four restaurants on Central Ave.
Roti, of course, are what Harry Singh is most famous for, and more specifically roti dhalpourie, which is what you get when you take a roti and fill it with a curry stew.

 Asia Times Online - The best news coverage from South Asia
Singh became a household name for an entire generation of Indians in 1991, when, as finance minister, he brought the country away from the verge of bankruptcy through his famous economic liberalization that opened India's decades-old closed economy - considered to be a caged tiger - to global forces.
Singh commands respect, for his integrity, intellect and, significantly, the complete trust and backing he enjoys from the actual political leadership that has won the people's mandate to lead a new government.
In fact, Sushma Swaraj and Uma Bharati, two prominent BJP members and ministers in the erstwhile coalition government that the BJP led, had even called on the president, urging him not to invite Gandhi to form the new government as a prime minister.

 Justice for Jaggi Singh!

 Justice and Jaggi Singh
In ordering that Singh be kept in Orsainville jail, Quebec City Judge Yvon Mercier was at pains to point out that Singh had not, in the judge's estimation, abided by the terms of an earlier probation order.
Singh, on the other hand, testified in court that on the day he was arrested he stepped to the sidelines during the demonstration to comply with his probation order.
Singh now has a new probation order, issued by Quebec Court Judge Laurent Dube, which bars him from playing a leadership role in any further protests and specifically states he cannot use a megaphone.

The situation of Jaggi is an example of an activist targeted for a long time by the intelligence service (political police), to find himself back trapped in the cog of the wheel of criminalisation of protest.

 A hindu sikh sadhu (Sundar Singh) met by Jesus Christ
Sundar Singh was raised a devout Sikh, and consecrated from his youth to become a Hindu sadhu.
However, his spiritual longings were not fulfilled until emotional and spiritual turmoil drove him to urgently ask the true living God to reveal Himself fully, lest he take his own life in the hope of finding peace in the next.
With the large number of "spiritual paths" and "techniques" facing the world of today it is of special value to consider the life and insights of one who truly embraced the simplicity, love and freedom offered through devotion to Christ (Yesu Bhaktan).

Jagjit Singh with his better half, is single handedly responsible for changing the course of this genre of music known as Ghazals making it more ear friendly, melodic and mass oriented without poaching on the purity, which he has remarkably maintained.
Skeptics had their own reservations, purists scorned at it but the audience was, well, lapping up the album and this is what mattered or matters.

 Talvin Singh @ Union Chapel, London : gig review
The video had been busy telling us that, as a drummer, Singh hadn't wanted to be obscured at the back of the stage while a band took the limelight, but when Ustaad Sultan Khan began to play sarang we saw that the focus of the event moved to him.
We flocked in our hundreds to see London-based Singh's second Untouched concert, at which we were to expect spiritual music in a definitively spiritual setting.
A video documentary (that wouldn't have been out of place on BBC2) projected above the stage explained what Singh had been up to in India, and what he considered to be his education in the drumming culture of that country's southern regions.
