Question

3minute speech on personality of APJ Abdul kalam

Answer 1

Dr. A. P. J. Abdul Kalam was a man who dreamed and whose passion in life was to inspire others to dream.
One of his best remembered quotes is about dreams as well. He said,

“Dream is not that which you see while sleeping it is something that does not let you sleep.”

He was a great scientist, thinker, writer, motivational speaker, the missile man of India and its 11th President.

What makes his life an inspiration is that he started from humble beginnings in a remote village in South India, Rameswaram. That was the place where he had his first job of collecting bundles of newspaper thrown from a passing train. Many decades later he still recollected and felt the surge of pride in earning his own money for the first time.

But then there were many people who influenced and inspired this great son of India to become a dreamer and become known as the missile man of India. Let me just mention two of these people who moulded and mentored Abdul Kalam.

First of all, Iyadurai Solomon. He was Abdul Kalam’s teacher. The relationship between them was very strong. This teacher influenced Abdul Kalam’s thoughts very much. It was he who taught him, “To succeed in life and achieve results, you must understand and master three mighty forces—desire, belief and expectation

Answer 2

Heya!!

Here is your answer..


There were many faces behind the missile man of India, a prolific poet, sensitive human being, a patriot Indian who always thought that unless my motherland becomes a nuclear Nation, it would not enjoy the respect in the league of Nations of the World and a humble man with a child-like curiosity who would play with kids at Rashtrapati Bhavan during morning walk forgetting that he is head of a state.

Bharat Ratna APJ Abdul Kalam brought blue revolution by heading integrated guided missile development program but very few know that he used to play Rudraveena at an ease. In one of his poems (in Tamil which has been translated in English) Kalam refers to Agni missile, the ICBM intercontinental ballistic missile which has a range of 2500 miles, as his son and writes, '`my parents were sad when I decided against marrying, they were worried as to their family name would not be continued but today when Agni has hit the target at 2500 Kms in sea, I am remembered of my parents. If they would have been alive, they would have been so happy to see that their grand-son (Agni) is so powerful

Dr S K Salvan, the former director of ARDE (Armament Research and Development Establishment) had narrated an anecdote about Kalam. A scientist who got transferred to Orisa at Missile site and could not concentrate on work for 3-4 days had seen different Kalam. Kalam went to the scientist's room and asked him as to why was he not able to concentrate on work. When he told that his son was bed-ridden in Mumbai and phone call could not get through for last 3-4 days, it was Kalam who himself told operator to connet it to Mumbai. Kalam talked to scientist's son and wife as well as made the scientist to speak to his family members. The scientis was in tears when Kalam told him, ``look, even one person at the missile site can't concentrate on work, the entire program which is ambitious for the country could fail. What are we doing here if our family members are not well? Henceforth, feel free to tell me if anything is wrong, be it personal or otherwise.''
