Dr.Abdul kalam who was the Indian president completing his five year term as the president of India has gone back to Tamil Nadu where he was born, brought up and educated to take up his future career as a teacher in Anna University.
During his service it appears to be that he was the only president who freely mingled with students community.His advises are very valuable for the students and he prooved that he was simple and humane.
His guidance to the ruling party was immense.Had he been given a second term it would have been appreciatable.Whatever it is... it is time for all countrymen taking this opportunity to stand up and salute for his future sucess.
share your opinion about this great former president.

Yes, our ex-president Dr. Abdul Kalam was such an inspiring person for our people of India. even though he was in the highest post in our country, he did not behave in such way, he was such a downgoing person and easy to access and talk.
He has remained as a great inspiration especially for our younger generation. After Mahatma Gandhi, i feel that he is the next best politician in india.

He is not a politician and he doesn't belong to any party. He is a scientist and contributed a lot to Indian army and forces. All Indians love him very much. He is a great person who admires inner beauty.

Suba, Dr. Kalam is an outstanding person. He was one of the Secretaries to the Govt. of India, prior to becoming President. And I may tell you that he is such a simple person....he shaked hands with me ...in one of our official meetings...and asked where excatly I work, I can still remember those magic moments and I tell my family about that ...I got the opportunity to shake hands with him.
He is very humble, when he was in our Ministry....he used to take his lunch from the office canteen.. he is so simple ...that you cannot believe. I am a great fan for him...and feel that he should have been given a second term, but for politicians.

Well to be honest with you the Indian people especially the young so far has no feelings towards the presidential post. remember the names to write in exams and for quizzes.Kalam is the first president to be considered by the people with a soul.It shows that our people can always sense the honesty and integrity of a person.Any how we had a great man as a president for a change.

Indeed Mr.Kalam is a boon to India. His contribution in the field of science is immense. His motivation to the student community is immeasurable.
But its due to dirty politics that he himself got fedup and said that he will not be a candidate to stand for election as a president for the second term.
He will spread his knowledge in all fields of command he has wherever he is, so no matter how and what post he is. Ofcourse its sad that such a person is not identified with the true spirit.
But now his fame is worldwide, now our duty is to grasp all knowledge from him from all available sources and make him happy to see younger generation working and moving forward to uplift the nations developing position in all fields.
