Manmohan Singh's Demise LIVE: 26/11 Terror Attack In 2008 ‘Shook Him Up Very Badly’: Ex-Deputy NSA Saran 

During his tenure as Prime Minister (2004-2014), Manmohan Singh "tried very hard" to establish "some kind of peace" with Pakistan, but it didn't work and was thrown away by the 26/11 attacks on Mumbai. In fact, the terror attack in 2008 ‘shook him up very badly,’ said Manmohan Singh’s then close aide Pankaj Saran, in conversation with PTI. Unshaken by the setback, three years later, Singh tried to reconcile with the neighbour and himself sent a letter to then Pakistan PM Yousuf Raza Ghilani. 

The letter carried an invite for Ghilani to come to India and watch the ongoing cricket match in Mohali. A never-seen-before sight filled up the TV screens: Indian and Pakistani PMs sitting side by side.
