Rest in peace Dr Kalam

Former President Dr APJ Abdul Kalam passed away today following a cardiac arrest while delivering a speech at IIM Shillong. Known as the 'missile man', he was truly a revolutionary. He came from humble roots and showed that knowledge is the key to success becoming the 11th President of India. But he was not just an intellectual, he was a man with great compassion and understanding. He was an inspiration for many. He envisioned a better India. When he retired, he chose to teach. He loved to teach and he loved to spend time with students. He loved to answer their queries and he spent his last moments with students. Forever a teacher, forever a student.
I had always wanted to meet Dr Kalam and now it's not possible in this life, but in my heart I pay all due respect to his departed soul and condolence to the entire nation.
