Explanation:
One of India’s most adored Presidents, APJ Abdul Kalam, worked as an aerospace engineer with the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) before his presidential term. He is known as the ‘Missile man’ for his work on the development of ballistic missiles and launch vehicles. Dr Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam, was born on 15 October, 1931 at Rameshwaram, Tamil Nadu.
In order to supplement his father’s income, he used to distribute newspapers after attending school. In school, he was an average student, but hardworking and with a keen desire to learn.
He studied at Schwartz High School in Ramanathapuram where he found an ideal teacher in Iyadurai Solomon. From him, Kalam learnt the key to success in life.
To succeed in life and achieve results, you must understand and master three mighty forces—desire, belief and expectation.” He did his BSc from St Joseph College, Tiruchirapalli oblivious even to the option for higher education.
He did a course in Aeronautical Engineering from Madras Engineering College in 1954-1957. Here, he was fascinated by the sight of two decommissioned aircrafts displayed for demonstration. Fascinated by the desire to fly, when he had to opt for a specific branch, aeronautical engineering became a natural choice. Once, his Dean gave him a deadline of three days to finish a project, owing to his lack of progress. But unexpectedly, he finished it on time by working sincerely day and night.
He missed becoming a fighter pilot, as there were only eight seats available and he stood ninth. He started his career with DRDO in 1958. Here, he designed a small helicopter for the Indian Army. He also became a part of the INCOSPAR Committee under Vikram Sarabhai.
He went ahead to join ISRO five years later where he was the project director of SLV III. It was due to the team effort under his leadership
that ‘Rohini’ was successfully launched in 1980. This was the beginning of India’s aerospace programme. Kalam initiated an independent work on an expandable rocket project in 1965. In 1969, he received government’s nod to incorporate more engineers in the project.
During 1963-64, he visited NASA’s Langley Research Centre in Hampton. Between 1970s and 1990s, he worked relentlessly to develop Polar SLV and SLV-III, both of which garnered success. He was invited by Dr Raja Ramanna to preside over the nation’s first nuclear test, Smiling Buddha. In the 1970s, he supervised
two projects, Project Devil and Project Valiant, for the development of ballistic missiles. Despite disapproval of Cabinet, Prime Minister Indira Gandhi allocated him funds for these projects. Due to his success, the government decided to initiate advanced missile programme under his leadership.
he was entrusted with the development of Integrated Guided Missile Development Programme. Dr Kalam henceforth plunged into developing ‘Prithvi’, the surface to surface weapon system Agni’, Akash’ and ‘Nag’. He is also responsible for the completion of the long delayed ‘Arjun’ anti-tank project and also worked upon an indigenous aircraft engine ‘Kaveri’.Akash’ too was test-fired successfully. In 1998, nuclear tests were conducted and thereafter he was appointed the principal Scientific Advisor to the Government of India with the rank of a Union Cabinet Minister in November 1999, a position in which he continued to be until November 2001.
