"Warm birthday wishes to our former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. May he lead a long life filled with good health," Modi said in a tweet. Singh, who turned 85 on Tuesday, was the former Prime Minister of India between 2004 and 2014 during the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) regime. On Manmohan Singh's birthday Lalu Prasad Yadav and famous media anchor Rajat Sharma also wishes him on tweet.  


Also, he was the only person after Jawaharlal Nehru to make a comeback as a Prime Minister after serving the post for a full five year's term. He was also the first non-Hindu Prime Minister of India.

His political career began in 1991 when he was appointed as the country's Finance Minister under late Prime Minister PV Narasimha Rao. It was the same year during which he helped usher in "liberalisation and privatisation" to the Indian economy.
