About Kalaam From My Kalam

He had sleepless dreams ....

Admiring trillions of Indians, he rose like a rose with colours of valour
Born in Rameshwaram village, to Jainulabdeen a poor boat owner.
Dreamt of changing the world with his venerated ardour 
Using reason, motivation, intention and fervour
Learning and teaching he spent his life to see country grow.

Kindness and benevolence he revered,
And hunted time to spend his last breath teaching -
Lived with sincerity, 
Admired by everyone and now
Mother India has graved this flying passion in her womb.

I aim to fulfil Dr. A.P.J .Abdul Kalam’s visions for India.
He aspired to see Knowledgeable India with research and development involved,
He respired to remove unemployment and poverty,
He never despaired while struggling by seeing the rock walls and external constraints.

First to see an educated and knowledgeable India
I would promote global awareness for funds in education in India
I would bring out interest from the international private and public enterprises
To train the poor students of India for future recruitment.

The future of the country witnesses the growth from its classrooms
Because the students and youth of today are the future citizens for the country
And the nation depends on their activities and efforts
The methods of producing and receiving of education should change a lot 

The teaching methodology as well as lecturing should change
The knowledge must be given along with the character
And should believe in ‘Character first- Competence next’, as my school taught me
Because most of the educated people may become intruders, criminals and terrorists.

The mass of the illiterate India should become ‘I’ll literate India’.
For that the services given by the government institutes to the poor should develop
Even though the faculty is well trained and professional
But the infrastructure is not as required

The toilets are not well maintained
And students face an uncomfortable issue with the ill-maintained bathrooms
The food they provide during mid-day meals is not hygienic at few places
The rooftops over few classrooms are not well constructed and may lead to danger.

All teachers have to make their students true patriots
As well as unique thinkers but not mugging machines
Even housewives can educate her children with morals
Even old aged people would train youngsters by acknowledging them about the customs and culture.
