OCLF - 2019 | It is About APJ Abdul Kalam that what I understood About him By Srijan Pal Singh
Description
Dr APJ Abdul Kalam was one of the most futuristic leaders which are apparent through the Vision 2020 which he formulated. He was a man with honor, futuristic and with vision. He cares for everyone including giant to small birds.
We always discussed national issues. Dr. Kalam was worried about Parliament that the supreme institution of democracy was dysfunctional. He said, "I have seen two different governments in my tenure. I have seen more after that. This disruption just keeps happening. It is not right. I really need to find out a way to ensure that the parliament works on developmental politics."
Today, I look back - he took the final journey, teaching, what he always wanted to be remembered doing. And, till his final moment he was standing, working and lecturing. He left us, as a great teacher, standing tall. He leaves the world with nothing accumulated in his account but loads of wishes and love of people. He was a successful, even in his end.
Will miss all the lunches and dinners we had together, will miss all the times you surprised me with your humility and startled me with your curiosity, will miss the lessons of life you taught in action and words, will miss our struggles to race to make into flights, our trips, our long debates. You gave me dreams, you showed me dreams need to be impossible, and for anything else is a compromise to my own ability. The man is gone, the mission lives on. Long live Kalam.
