Prem Singh is a Fijian politician and a member of the National Federation Party. An Indo-Fijian, he won the Nadi Open constituency in the election of 2001, becoming the only candidate of his party to win a parliamentary seat. He was subsequently appointed Leader of the Opposition, after the Fiji Labour Party leader, Mahendra Chaudhry, declined the office, insisting that his party wanted Cabinet representation instead. Singh's tenure as Leader of the Opposition was brief, however, as court challenge by his supposedly defeated opponent, Krishna Prasad of the Fiji Labour Party, deprived him of his seat in Parliament in 2002.
