“If you want to shine like a sun, first burn like a sun.”
Good morning to one and all present here. Today, I’m going to be talking about Dr. A. P. J. Adbul Kalam.
The quote I began with was uttered by none other than this Missile Man of India. Born on the 15th of October, 1931, Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam was the eleventh president of India, titled the People’s President. Having studied aeronautical engineering, he was a brilliant scientist who worked in ISRO and remains the pride of the nation.
Today, the great star is not there with us, having passed away at the age of 83 in the fateful year 2015. Yet, he lives in our hearts, his words of wisdom remaining etched in the books of our history.
I’d like to conclude my speech by thanking you all for providing me the opportunity to deliver this talk on him. Jai Hind!
