i respected this guy.. bharat ratna... scientist... president.. gud inspiring speeches... till then i liked him.. then came reservations.. he shut his mouth like a petty dirty politician... politicians .. i understand them .they do this for votes. this guy needs no votes. he is self made.. educated. understands the differences between right n wrong.. did he stand up for truth ? NO.. he begged these student to bear it .. his message was almost like " You cant avoid rape.. then lay back and Enjoy it!!" shame on u kalam..
