Tobgay visited the Indian Embassy in Thimpu on Tuesday and signed the condolence book in memory of the former Indian PM who is also considered as the architect of Indian economic reform.

He posted on X: "Signed the condolences book in memory of the late Dr. Manmohan Singh @Indiainbhutan . Profoundly grateful to Late PM for his unwavering support and personal friendship. Thanks to his support and cooperation, we were able to launch the 11th Five Year Plan swiftly and successfully."
