    He is the first president who travelled in every state of India just to know about the structure of states and interact with kids in every state. I also got a chance to interact with Sir. He was so humble . I still remember when he said translator to not to translate in english he replied in the same language as kids.

    1. Humility
    2. Selfless service to humanity.
    When talking to an inteviewer, he pointed to the books that filled the shelves of his library and said "This is all I have; these are my treasures!".

    Well spoken about the leadership qualities, by Dr. Kalam...
    One short but great advice to all learners(including students) and knowledge seekers- 'Just having knowledge is not enough, you must have an intention to learn where to apply your gained knowledge and know how to apply it and moreover have the courage to apply it '
    Knowledge gives you Ideas...I mean one gets the ideas by applying his knowledge...

    President Kalam was such a hero for him every Indian no matter what religion; colour; caste or creed will be proud of.
    Needless to say God will take great care of one of his very special soul and we thank almighty for giving such a great soul to India.

    I'm glad that my generation was around to listen to this man and call him our President when he was alive!!! How proud he must have been of Chandrayaan-3's success. I as a regular Indian citizen(a proud tax payer though) feel so proud of our scientists, who have played an active part in shaping our Indian Community. We couldn't be a developed nation by 2020 as per kalam Sir's vision..........but looking at the recent developments in terms of India's stature worldwide, I think we will get there!!!
