- A.P.J. Abdul Kalam
(Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam).
Dr. Kalam is one of the most distinguished scientists of India with the unique honour of receiving honorary doctorates from 30 universities and institutions. He has been awarded the coveted civilian awards - Padma Bhushan (1981) and Padma Vibhushan (1990) and the highest civilian award Bharat Ratna (1997).

"When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are, Anything your heart desires, will come true...", Kalam said in his farewell address to the nation.
"This poem is true for all of us, and particularly for our youth and if they aim great, I am sure they will reach close to the target or the target ".
" Success does not come in a day" , these are the few words that great leaders like our beloved president Abdul Kalam believed in when he started off with small steps, today the Indian Space Research Organisation stands with all its majesty as a symbol of the belief by a few inspired Indian Minds like Abdul Kalam. We being the forerunners of our ancestors hold this responsibility to carry the same message with us for the glory of this beautiful nation " India ".
In his speech after assuming the office of President of India on 25th July 2002, Dr APJ Abdul Kalam made the following statement:
"If youth have to sing the song of India, India should become a developed country which is free from poverty, illiteracy and un-employment and is buoyant with economic prosperity, national security and internal harmony. To create this transformation we all have to resolve ourselves to work and sweat for the national development."
He was merely putting forth the vision and resolve he has shown over the years to help India become a strong and secure country, slowly but surely.
Born on 15 October 1931 at Dhanushkodi in the Rameswaram district of Tamil Nadu, Dr Kalam’s father had to rent boats out to fishermen to pay this genius’ school fees. He received secondary education at the Schwartz School, a missionary institute in Ramanathapuram, and later joined the St. Joseph’s College at Tiruchirapalli, where he graduated with a Bachelor in Science. He went on to study Aeronautica.
A BRIEF HISTORY:
APJ Abdul Kalam was born in 1931 in a middle-class family in Rameshwaram, Tamil Nadu, a town well-known for its Hindu shrines. His mother tongue is Tamil. His father, a devout Muslim, owned boats which he rented out to local fishermen and was a good friend of Hindu religious leaders and the school teachers at Rameshwaram. APJ Abdul Kalam mentions in his biography that to support his studies, he started his career as a newspaper vendor. This was also told in the book, A Boy and His Dream: Three Stories from the Childhood of Abdul Kalam by Vinita Krishna. The house Kalam was born in can still be found on the Mosque street at Rameswaram, and his brother's curio shop abuts it. This has become a point-of-call for tourists who seek out the place. Kalam grew up in an intimate relationship with nature, and he says in Wings of Fire that he never could imagine that water could be so powerful a destroying force as that he witnessed when he was six. That was in 1934 when a cyclonic storm swept away the Pamban bridge .
"The trouble with Indians was not that they
lacked educational opportunities or industrial
infrastructure - the trouble was in their
failure to discriminate between disciplines
and to rationalise their choices," .
A developed India by 2020, or even earlier, is not a dream. It need not be a mere vision in the minds of many Indians. It is a mission we can all take up - and succeed." - A P J Abdul Kalam.

"PROUD TO BE AN INDIAN"
"Nation is greater than an individual"
"Whatever the depth of the river or lake,and whatever the condition of the water,the water lily always blossoms"
If there is a determination to achieve a goal,man will always succeed.
I believe is not only a means of recognition but also source of self respect--giving a person an individual recognition...
If u believe your self then u can do anything in this world means nothing is impossible for u & the world is in ur hand.

(Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam)
Dr A.P.J. Abdul Kalam is the undisputed father of India's missile program. He has breathed life into ballistic missiles like the Agni and Prithvi,it is too exhausting to track Dr Abdul Kalam's achievements to date. By the '90s Kalam emerged as the czar of Indian science and technology and was awarded the BHARAT RATNA.
Kalam's advice to the youngsters of the nation is to "DREAM,DREAM,AND DREAM AND CONVERT THESE INTO THOUGHTS AND LATER INTO ACTIONS."

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born in the town of Porbander in the state of what is now Gujarat on 2 October 1869.
The last few months of Gandhi's life were to be spent mainly in the capital city of Delhi. There he divided his time between the 'Bhangi colony', where the sweepers and the lowest of the low stayed, and Birla House, the residence of one of the wealthiest men in India and one of the benefactors of Gandhi's ashrams.
Because of our father of nation ""mahatma Gandhi"" we got our freedom....
Gandhi ji was raised in a very conservative family that had affiliations with the ruling family of Kathiawad. He was educated in law at University College, London. In 1891, after having been admitted to the British bar, Gandhi returned to India and attempted to establish a law practice in Bombay, without much success. Two years later an Indian firm with interests in South Africa retained him as legal adviser in its office in Durban. Arriving in Durban, Gandhi found himself treated as a member of an inferior race. He was appalled at the widespread denial of civil liberties and political rights to Indian immigrants to South Africa. He threw himself into the struggle for elementary rights for indian.
Mahatma Gandhi-the greatest Indian ever to
live.He was a man who by his own courage and
conviction and his principle of non-violence
freed India from colonialism.
His belief in non-violence is still the very
foundation of Indian state and Nation.Gandhi dedicated his life to the wider purpose of discovering truth, or Satya. He tried to achieve this by learning from his own mistakes and conducting experiments on himself. He called his autobiography "The Story of My Experiments With Truth".
The Indian people called Gandhiji 'Mahatma', meaning Great Soul. At the age of 13 Gandhi married Kasturba, a girl the same age. Their parents arranged the marriage. The Gandhis had four children. Gandhi studied law in London and returned to India in 1891 to practice. In 1893 he took on a one-year contract to do legal work in South Africa.
At the time the British controlled South Africa. When he attempted to claim his rights as a British subject he was abused, and soon saw that all Indians suffered similar treatment. Gandhi stayed in South Africa for 21 years working to secure rights for Indian people.
He developed a method of action based upon the principles of courage, nonviolence and truth.
"Non-violence is the greatest force at the disposal of mankind. It is mightier than the mightiest weapon of destruction devised by the ingenuity of man.
- MAHATMA GANDHI.
Gandhiji’s life was dedicated to the ideals of Truth, Non-violence and Love. ... It was neither wealth nor power that made Gandhiji so famous. ...Mahatma Gandhi was a simple man, with simple tastes and high values. Respecting that, even though Gandhi Jayanti is a national holiday, the festivities are minimal.
Mahatma Gandhi was unquestionably a great man, both in personal force and in political effect. He moulded the character of the struggle for freedom in India, and impressed his own ideals upon the new governing class that came into power when the English went home. There is, at the present day, a general awakening throughout Asia, but the spirit and policy of India, thanks largely to Gandhi, remains very different from that of any other Asiatic country.
Gandhi, like some other great men, developed slowly: Quite extraordinary psychological acumen would have been necessary to discern his future in the shy youth who studied law, first in India and then in England. His autobiography contains a picture of him as he was in his early days in England, and there is nothing in it to suggest the future loincloth; on the contrary, his costume is faultlessly correct and would pass inspection by the "Tailor and Cutter" without any criticism.
Mahatma Gandhi was really a super hero and a great personality. Without his strong support n dedication, you think, can we live such free n happy life? but the young generation is forgetting his fight for truth he fought for you people to give you the gift of INDEPENDANT INDIA. This is my kind effort to take the HERO again in light.
"I cannot teach you violence, as I do not myself believe in it. I can only teach you not to bow your heads before any one even at the cost of your life." Mahatma Gandhi.
If you face any problems in life, that seems permanent; take time to think, everything has a solution. If you feel it appears beyond your limits, do write it down. Someone might have the answer......

Social Service Team who held the teachings and disciplines of Father of our Nation "MAHATMA GANDHI". The workers of this foundation trying to spread the teachings of Gandhiji.
This foundation also interested in charitable works also. This foundation will fight aganist the disrespect to National Flag, National Anthem, National Song and all other.
MAHATMA GANDHI -THE LEGEND
THE BRITISH WERE unable to control the situation in India which was steadily becoming worse. Famine and disorder had sapped the foundations of imperial prestige. Britain emerged from the war victorious but physically exhausted and morally sober. The general elections of 1945 returned Labour to power and Mr. Attlee, the British Prime Minister, unwilling to lose India altogether by persisting in the Churchillian policy of blood and iron, promised "an early realization of self Government in India." In the meanwhile, elections were to be held and a Constituent Assembly convened to frame a constitution for a united India. A Cabinet Mission arrived from England to discuss with Indian leaders the future shape of a free and united India, but failed to bring the Congress and Muslims together. Having encouraged Muslims separatism the British were now unable to control it,
On August 12, 1946, the Viceroy invited Jawaharlal Nehru to form an interim government. Jinnah declared a "Direct Action Day" in Bengal.
Now a days the foundation is trying to fight aganist the disrespect to Mahatma Gandhi and the great War of Indian Independence.
Ahimsa means not to injure any creature by thought, word or deed, not even to the supposed advantage of this creature.Truth is my religion and ahimsa is the only way of its realisation.I do not envisage God other than truth and non-violence. If you have accepted the doctrine of ahimsa without a full realization of its implications, you are at liberty to repudiate it. I believe in confessing one's mistakes and correcting them. Such confession strengthens one and purifies the soul. Ahimsa calls for the strength and courage to suffer without retaliation, to receive blows without returning any.
these are some great thoughts of a person who changed our world through love and ahimsa he must be remebered for his contribution to society.

Whenever we mention the name of India to a foreigner the first thing that jumps to their mind would be Mahatma Gandhi. Mahatma means great soul . Gandhi earned that title by fighting the mighty British empire through the means of Ahimsa or Non Violence. This novel concept of war brought one of the greatest empires in the modern world to its knees. This is why Mahatma Gandhi is admired as one of the greatest personalities of the modern world ! By peaceful means he lead India to its independence from British rule in 1947.
The Making Of The Mahatma :
One day Gandhi was traveling in a first class compartment of a train with a valid ticket and was thrown out, at Pietermaritzburg. This was a turning point in the life of Gandhi and the making of the Mahatma.
From this political awakening Gandhi was to emerge as the leader of the Indian community in South Africa. It was in South Africa that he first coined the term 'satyagraha' to signify his theory and practice of non-violent resistance.
In the thick of the election, he found time to talk to us. Now three months after the interview,he holds the post oF Union Minister of state for externail affairs.

India has a long way to go before it can achieve a superpower status. But at the same time I beleive thet we can be a very influential power in the world.THE IDEAS IS THAT THE ATTRACTION OF iNDIAS CULTURE,ITS VALUES,ITS PRINCIPLES,ITS DEMOCRACY,& ITS PLURALISTIC & CREATIVE SOCIETY [etc]gives it a strength which will earn india an influential place in the world.Even our democracy,which some of us are not efficiently participating in,is a great strength for us,last election,I was travelling in the arab world when the result came in & we had an election won by women politiccal leaders,of christian faith, of italian background, with a sikh sworn in as Prime Minister by a muslim president in a country which has 81% hindu population.
All of us are aware of Mayawati getting statues of herself getting installed in Uttar Pradesh. There are three significant issues which are interlinked with this.
1) Cost to the Nation and State:- This is done at a cost of crores of rupees, which our country or any state in our country can afford to, especially when we are sourcing loans from World Bank for our bare necessities. Farmers all across the country are struggling because of lack of water or the other extreme flooded with rains and crops getting damaged. These problems are in addition to the existing problems of an average Indian middle class citizen These crores of rupees could have been utilized for the development of state and the country. One thing to be remembered is politicians are our elected to represent us, not rule us.
2) Importance of Mahama Gandhi:- Every Indian knows through history books as to how we get our freedom. Our predecessors made lot of sacrifices for us to have a better future and Mahatama Gandhi was at the forefront this struggle. Rightly so he was affectionately called as Father of the Nation. There were many others like Nehru & Netaji Subash Chandra Bose and lot of others, who fought for us and in fond memory of them we have installed their statues, which is our duty and which is something that these great martyrs deserved. Now with statues of Mayawati around, we are either elevating Mayawati to the status of Mahatma Gandhi or bringing our Father of Nation the revered Gandhiji, to that of Mayawati. Either way Mahatama Gandhi and rest of our martyrs did not deserve this.
Last but not the last, even the public who have allowed this to happen should not be forgiven.

Satish
