Rest In Peace : Abdul Kalam

[Rohan]

I got the news just now from my College Friend. :T_T:

Kalam (84) took ill at a function in Shillong and was rushed to the hospital, M Kharkrang, SP Khasi Hills, said.
The former President collapsed during a lecture at the Indian Institute of Management in Shillong at around 6.30 pm and was taken to the hospital. TV reports earlier said that Kalam suffered a massive cardiac arrest at the function at IIM Shillong.
He had been admitted to the ICU at the hospital.
"The former president was brought almost dead to our hospital. He is in a critical condition. We are trying to revive the patient," John Sailo Ryntathiang, director of Bethany Hospital, had told IANS.
"He is in the Intensive Care Unit. We are examining him. We suspect that it could be cardiac arrest," Sailo had said.
Meghalaya Governor V Shanmughanathan and Chief Secretary PBO Warjri visited Bethany hospital where Kalam has been admitted.
Chief Secretary PBO Warjiri told reporters outside the hospital that he had spoken to Union Home Secretary LC Goyal asking for necessary arrangements to be made for carrying Kalam's body from Guwahati to Delhi on Tuesday morning.
The Meghalaya Governor, along with state government officials and defence personnel, will accompany his body to New Delhi, according to Times Now.
Government will declare national mourning for seven days, said Union Home Secretary LC Goyal.

An Indian scientist and former president. He played major role in Indian defense programs and changing Indias image not just country of snake charmers. Usually Indian presidents are useless politicians of ruling party but this one was a former scientist and most of all he inspired hell lot of people, that was also the last thing he was doing before he died.
RIP

For every child, there are few childhood heroes, for me this guy was my childhood hero. I always wanted to be like this guy. For India he was a missile man, for me he was the Super man. I don't know what to say atm, because I don't have enough words to describe, the only thing, I can say is, this guy was simply an inspiration for all of us, who want to pursue career in Technology.
Thank you for everything sir and may your soul rest in peace.
