Funeral at 11.45 am at Delhi's Nigambodh Ghat crematorium, says home ministry

- PREETHA NAIR @New Delhi

AHEAD of former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh's final rites with full state honours, the Congress on Friday requested the Union government for a resting place for him along the banks of the Yamuna in Delhi, where many former PMs have their memorials.

However, sources said that the Centre told the Congress brass to conduct the funeral at the Nigambodh Ghat crematorium on Saturday as scheduled while it will consider the request for a memorial later. Congress sources said they had no option other than to proceed with the plan announced by the Union home ministry.
