Abdul kalam was a decent man and too nice a person.He was much loved and respected by those around him and those who ran the country.The only thing kalam did not do is use this position to his advantage. He could have raised his voice against the atrocities and injustices commited by the far right hindu communal parties against the minorities scapegoating them and even framing them for crimes they did not commit.He had a chance . He lost it.But again the position of a president is only a figurehead and i dont believe he could have done much. Even if he did novbody would have listened tohim any way. He might have even be accused by the BJP/RSS for 'sympathising with the terrorists' as these ignorant people appear to harbour hate and prejudice by their stereo typing the muslim minority of india.
