I wish IN to name next carrier as INS KALAM.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
A truly great son of India and a great inspiration for many generations.
I had the good fortune to meet him in person in Delhi and he gave me a job.
A great life! May the journey continue in the service of Bharat Mata.

Extremely sad. One of my hero well and truly gone to the next realm. May be he reborn and come back and guide us to a better future.

Naming an aircraft carrier after the great man is a great idea. Maybe tweet this folks?

I met him at a charity event a few years back, a very humble, down-to-earth person. He was kind enough to sign my copy of wings of Fire, shook my hand and shared a few words of encouragement!
May he attain moksh!
May he attain moksh!

This is double whammy in a single day. I feel privileged to have lived in the same time as this great son of Bharat Mata. Bharat Mata has lost some great sons today and they will be remembered by the sons and daughters of this country till the day Bharat exists. I wish you will come back soon.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Oh I wish there could be an impressive memorial in Delhi...
He has done SO MUCH for his motherland.

What a sad day for Bharat. Thoughts are with his family.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
RIP Kalam sir!! May more of you be born in India.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Rest in peace sir. May you be born in India again!

Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
I'm sad, very sad today. This feels like a personal loss...my eyes are moist as I listen to distinguished people talk about him. There are some voids which can simply not be filled.

A true son of Bharat.Singha wrote:I still have his wings of fire book and his short poem
Dreams float on a impatient wind
A wind that wants to create a new order
An order of strength and thundering of fire
Agni series. Prithvi. The IGMDP. The base on which India will one day be fully protected.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Very sad day for me. If there is something called moksha, you surely deserve that sir, but if you are to take birth again, I pray and hope you are born in India and serve the country again.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
I remember his statement after Shakti1998 "India will no longer fight other ppl/countries war"
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
National mourning of 7days declared.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
you said it rohit, I have tears in my eyes. it feels hard to believe that he will no longer inspire us with great dreams and ideas delivered in his inimitable childlike enthusiasm.
you made us believe sir, in ourselves, in the fact that honesty and wonder can survive decades of Indian bureaucracy. most of all, you convinced us to dream. more than anything else you would be remembered for that.

Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Same here. Major roads named after him, a major university, important city squares, colleges. And at least one bronze statue of Dr. Kalam in New Delhi.Oh I wish there could be an impressive memorial in Delhi...He has done SO MUCH for his motherland.
He lived a virtuous life, was an idealist and a true patriot.
He has moved on to a higher life form.
If he comes back again as a human, may that be in Bharat again.
We are all sad, but we should remember that his work and inspiration will live on.

What Abdul Kalamji did was teaching Indian they can make world class weapons and are second to none. He has inspired Indians to think and conceptualize new weapons. That is his legacy.
I am not sad.
Only more resolute to ensure India is never the "sixth" country in any thing.
That was his message.

What a loss. Even after retirement he was active. It is too bad that he wasn't allowed to serve a 2nd term as president. The country and the world needed him.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
He was one of the greatest sons of Bharat Mata. This loss will never diminish. But he will always be with us in spirit- to guide us, to inspire us. Thank you for everything you did for this country, sir. May you rest in peace.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
am very sad hearing this news. may he be born again and lead us across other frontiers, when I was in DRDL and his protégé who was my boss told me so many wonderful tales about how he used to encourage young engineers and enable them to surpass all boundaries of achievement. really sad
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Condolences.. he was a true gem of a person who worked for India's good.
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
Sad news.
I read somewhere that he was well versed in the Bhagwadgeeta as well.

RIP O' Great son of India. "Bharat Ratna"
Re: Abdul Kalam passes away Oct 15, 1931 - July 27, 2015
I sent him a poem that I wrote and published first on Bharat Rakshak Monitor. He was kind enough to write a personal note in response, which I will treasure.
When he was President, he once inaugurated the December music season at Music Academy at Chennai, where I was in the audience. His humility, kindness and ability to connect with the audience (even a snooty one like that in the Music Academy) were inspiring. In that inauguration speech, he displayed a depth of knowledge about the Gita and other Hindu texts, about classical music (he himself played the Veena), about Tamil literature. Amazing man.
