Singh leaves for New Delhi on Sunday morning. After stopping overnight in Geneva, he reaches New Delhi on Monday night.

Incidentally, Sept 26 happens to be his official birthday and his aides plan to have a celebration aboard Air-India One, the prime minister's special aircraft.

Singh had told journalists on his way from New Delhi to London that he was not aware of the exact date of his birth in Gah, a little village in Punjab province of Pakistan, as his mother died within weeks of his birth, and that Sept 26 was what was entered for the school records by his family.

Singh has been spending a long time every day, particularly in the evenings, attending to files and governance and communicating with his office in New Delhi.
