< Back > < Next >

G.Uday Kiran (Sri Sai Junior College,Bapatla,ANDHRA PRADESH, 16 yrs): Dear sir,Kalam, how can you manage to build a dynamic India in the conditions of unemployment,poverty and corruption?

President APJ Abdul Kalam: Problems gives challenge. Challenge leads to achievements with knowledge and work.


M.S.Adityan (Anand Vidya Vihar, Vadodara, 10 yrs): Respected Rashtrapatiji, You are a great man and a national hero. I am keen to know one strong reason that makes you a great person. I am asking this as I don't know how to idolize you. As a Nuclear Scientist, As President of India or as a humble down to earth person who likes children. Namaskarams M.S.Adityan

President APJ Abdul Kalam: My dream is to have a thought that "I should known for being a good human being".


Gunajn Thareja (D.A.V.School YamunaNagar, 15 yrs): Why are we ducking away from giving good strong moral education to students right from class V to College level. I think this is where we are lacking in comparison to Japan. If only we Indians could have been better morally, India would have been a differrent country. As you must be aware if same thing is told to someone day after day right through atleast 10 years of schooling, it will have atleast some impact on the person. Atleast it will cause a guilt feeling whenever he is doing something wrong. Right now we dont even bother to open the moral education books (if any at all) untill the examination day. Even Teachers are not serious about it.They will say "Ok, Do your pending HomeWork quietly". We need to work on moral as dilligently as possible. I hope you will get moral education to be delievered more dilligently and seriously.

President APJ Abdul Kalam: It is a good question. I have already answered to Mr Manoj Kumar, you may refer.


Nishith Kaul (elementary school New York, 10 yrs): Why have YOU NOT VISITED the Kashmir Pandits even once who are living as refugees in camps in their own country and have suffered the most from Muslim terrorists while you were quick to visit relief camps for Muslims in Gujarat ??? Does not it show your double standard?

President APJ Abdul Kalam: I have visited the J&K Pandits camps twice at Jammu.
