APJ Abdul Kalam

”My message, especially to young people is to have courage to think differently, courage to invent, to travel the unexplored path, courage to discover the impossible and to conquer the problems and succeed. These are great qualities that they must work towards. This is my message to the young people.”
He, The Missile Man of India, might not be here in person but personalities like Sir APJ Abdul kalam are visions and inspirations. They don’t die, they do survive in our dreams. And his dream was to bring a change in India, which he realised can’t he bought by strikes, fights or politicians but by us- the genX. And it is our duty to make his dreams live on, to make his vision2020 a success with with he will survive.

The huge void left after him can’t be filled just like , but hypothetically Mr Kalam would want most of the us to fill that void. Across the world, people are pouring their heart felt respects and tributes to the great personality he was but one should feel that only hard work towards the ideal change Mr Kalam sir sought for 2020 would be the satisfying tribute of all.
Mr Kalam while lecturing students of IIM Shillong on ‘Livable Planet Earth’ around 6.30 PM collapsed after a massive heart attack and passed away. He was a man of vision and he left us with one such great vision. He would want us to work and succed rather than to mourn to his death and post tributes. He believed in ideas, hardwork and implementing the ideas.

He spearheaded the vision during his tenure as a President and visiting schools, colleges to provide motivation and wisdom to the coming generation. He always belive that dreams trasform into thoughts and thoughts into action. Its the responsibility of every indian to have righteousness in out hearts and follow jis vision. To keep his hopes dreams and him alive deep within by creating the change in our India he once thought about.

“Thinking should become your capital asset, no matter whatever ups and downs you come across in your life.”

Shillong: Former President APJ Abdul Kalam, a popular President between 2002 and 2007, passed away on Monday after he collapsed during a lecture in Shillong.

Kalam (84) took ill at a function in Shillong and was rushed to the hospital, M Kharkrang, SP Khasi Hills, said.
The former President collapsed during a lecture at the Indian Institute of Management in Shillong at around 6.30 pm and was taken to the hospital. TV reports earlier said that Kalam suffered a massive cardiac arrest at the function at IIM Shillong.

He had been admitted to the ICU at the hospital.

“The former president was brought almost dead to our hospital. He is in a critical condition. We are trying to revive the patient,” John Sailo Ryntathiang, director of Bethany Hospital, told IANS.

“He is in the Intensive Care Unit. We are examining him. We suspect that it could be cardiac arrest,” Sailo said.

Meghalaya Governor V Shanmuganathan and Chief Secretary PBO Warjri visited Bethany hospital where Kalam has been admitted.

Earlier during the day, Kalam had tweeted about his function at IIM Shillong.

Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal tweeted, saying that the “nation has lost a real bharat ratna.”

BJP spokesperson Sambit Patra also reacted to Kalam’s demise as he told India Today, “He was a man who was always surrounded by knowledge. He never had an iota of politics around him.”
