New Delhi: Asha Singh, wife of senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh, breathed her last on Wednesday at a hospital in New Delhi after battling cancer for several years.

She was 58 and died around 7 pm at the Institute of Liver and Biliary Sciences in Vasant Kunj, where she was admitted a few days ago.

Doctors at the hospital said Asha suffered from advanced malignancy (advanced form of cancer) when she was brought to the institute.

"She breathed her last in the hospital around 7 pm. Her family including Digvijay Singh was present when she passed away," a senior doctor said.

Asha was also treated at a US hospital for cancer a few months ago. She is survived by four daughters and one son.

All Indians convey their condolences and pray for the soul to be at rest. But it is quite unconvincing to see this news as breaking news. It seems Zee news is not able to find any other national level important items to bring forward.

May her soul rest in peace. Condolences to Mr. Sigh and his 5 children. Congress government has been campaigning seriously since nearly 5 decades for small family in the interest of the nation, These congress leaders create rules for all others but personally have their own way and choose to procreate freely!
