Politician Priya Dutt recently shared a throwback image which featured her father Sunil Dutt and late US President Jimmy Carter.

Carter died on Sunday.

He was 100.

In her moving tribute to Cater, Priya Dutt wrote on Instagram: "The world has lost another extraordinary soul with the passing of Jimmy Carter."

"A man who tirelessly worked for peace & humanity. Sharing a precious moment of my dad with him & his wife Roslyn that reminds me of the kindness & warmth he shared with the world. Rest In Peace," she said.

Former US president Jimmy Carter, who lived longer than any of his predecessors and successors, died at the age of 100 on Sunday, media reports said.

Carter, who remained the president from 1977 to 1981, turned 100 in October.

The former president died at his home in Plains, George on Sunday afternoon, confirmed The Carter Center, non-profit organisation which was founded by Carter.

Mourning his demise, US secretary of defence Lloyd J. Austin said in a statement, "Americans will remember President Carter for his leadership in office and his distinguished post-presidency, but the Department also honors his sterling service in uniform. In his Nobel Peace Prize lecture, he noted that his "first chosen career was in the military."

The statement further reads, "We also honor President Carter for his contributions to global security. The Carter Doctrine still helps undergird our commitment to stability and security in the Gulf. His administration worked to strengthen NATO and U.S. alliances worldwide, grapple with the Iranian revolution, and confront Soviet aggression in Afghanistan.

Carter, who had also served as the governor of Georgia, became the oldest surviving US president after the death of George HW Bush in 2018.

Carter's term as the president was about battling out the economic problems and foreign policy issues.

Though he had helped in signing an accord between Egypt and Israel in the Middle East, Carter's reputation as the president was deeply affected by the death of eight Americans in the Iran hostage crisis.
