    Writer, journalist, one of India's best known satirists and former editor of Hindustan Times, Khushwant Singh, died on Thursday. Singh, known for his witty, fearless and acerbic writings, was 99.

    The man who spared none and spread ribald cheer with his celebrated column — With Malice towards One and All — was Hindustan Times editor between 1980-1983. He died quietly at home at his leafy Sujan Singh Park apartment, a landmark for oldtimers of the capital, in whose construction his grandfather, Sir Sujan Singh, had a big hand.

    He was born in Hadali (now in Pakistan) on February 2, 1915.

    His son and journalist Rahul Singh said he passed away very peacefully at his residence in Sujan Singh Park in Delhi. 'He led a very full life. He had some breathing problems,' said Rahul Singh.

    The man who made a place in the heart of millions of Indians with his irreverence and love of poetry will be laid to rest at the Lodhi Road crematorium at 4pm.
