Who is K. Natwar Singh?

Kunwar Natwar Singh is an Indian politician and former cabinet minister. On December 7, 2005, he was removed from his post as Minister in charge of External Affairs under a cloud of scandal and became a minister without portfolio. The U.N. Independent Enquiry Committee named his Indian National Congress party and him as beneficieries of illegal payoffs in Iraqi oil scam, resulting in his forced resignation from the Cabinet on December 6, 2005. Congress Party, as usual, denied the charges.

He is married to the daughter of Yadavindra Singh of Patiala Maharajkumari Heminder Kaur, and is hence brother-in-law to Amarinder Singh, the current Maharaja of Patiala and a former chief minister of Punjab.
