Honouring Major (Retd.) Ishwar Lall Singh (1930-2022), Former Vice-Chairperson Of SNM Residents’ Committee

It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Major (Retd.) Ishwar Lall Singh, a 92-year-old Singaporean veteran of the Indian National Army (INA) who served under the leadership of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose and then the Singapore Armed Forces (SAF).

He was one of the small group of officers that were present when Singapore gained its independence in 1965 and helped shape the SAF into what it is today. He served as the Vice-Chairman of the Residents’ Committee for two years at SNM (Singapore) and was cared for till his peaceful passing on 5th August 2022.

May his soul rest in eternal peace.
