Nationalists se better aur koi nahi hota....aise logon ko jitni respect do kam hai. GOI would surely give him a state funeral......nobody could deserve it more than him. Such heroes are born once in a century....a true Bharat Ratna.

RIP Sir

(Here come whatsapp message )Former President APJ Abdul Kalam has passed away in Shillong, The Quint has been able to confirm. He collapsed while delivering a lecture at IIM-Shillong.
Dr John Sailo, CEO, Bethany Hospital, Shillong confirmed to The Quint over the phone that Dr Kalam was brought dead to the hospital.
Speaking to The Quint, David Sailo, Managing Director of Bethany Hospital said he was brought to the hospital at 7pm without a pulse or any other sign of life, and that efforts were made to revive him. At 7:45 pm, Dr Kalam was declared dead, he said. When asked what the cause of death was he said, “As for the cause of death, difficult to say, but it may have been a cardiac event.”

Wow, at his age he was still delivering lectures?

The way he died perfectly encapsulates his life's work.


RIP and sleep well sir, you will never be forgotten.

You were not one of the best. You simply were THE BEST we ever had. Passed away doing what he loved most : interacting with students... Rest in Heaven... People's President - Kalam Sahab..

“You have to dream before your dreams can come true.”

“If a country is to be corruption free and become a nation of beautiful minds, I strongly feel there are three key societal members who can make a difference. They are the father, the mother and the teacher.”

“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.”

“To succeed in your mission, you must have single-minded devotion to your goal.”

“Let me define a leader. He must have vision and passion and not be afraid of any problem. Instead, he should know how to defeat it. Most importantly, he must work with integrity.”

“Great dreams of great dreamers are always transcended.”

“Let us sacrifice our today so that our children can have a better tomorrow.”

“Man needs his difficulties because they are necessary to enjoy success.”

“Look at the sky. We are not alone. The whole universe is friendly to us and conspires only to give the best to those who dream and work.”

“You see, God helps only people who work hard. That principle is very clear.”

i vow to follow all your teachings...RIP Sir...if every indian give just 1% of what you have taught us..we will lift this country to sky....i vow to dream big and work big for my country......you gave us a vision..we will archive that.. we will take India to new heights.......that would be the day..we can give you the true tribute... you have sparked the fire in every indian...

Every country has that one person who propels the country forward in leaps and bounds. Kalam was such a person.
