1. he has been one of the founding fathers of our space programme (SLV- satellite launch vehicle). today India is one of the select few (8 or 9) countries that have indigenously develpoed and launched satellites. We watch T.V get weather reports etc. all due to satellites.
2. he has done critical work in building our defence through the missiles programme.
3, Has been the National security adviser
4. Above all, served as President of the Nation.
5. continues to tour the nation and understands the problems faced by the people. Most politicians dont even tour their own constituency even during timkes of crisis.

another important thing abt Dr Kalam is that, he was the first President to return a Bill to Parliament for reconsideration.
Even now he is going as guest lecturer to many universities across the country so that many students irrepective of their region, get benifitted by his knowledge and get inspired by hi. He believes that youth power alone can make our nation stronger.

1. Vikram sarabhai was the founding father of SLV programe and it was his vision.. 2. Yes, he has managed the missile programme with success.... I appreciate him for that... 3. NSA job is very challenging in india.. But i don't remember kalam being a success.. 4. President is dummy in india.. Don't bothere... 5. Don't compare with petty politicians... Even yourself will be better than them....
