[nidokidos] MUST READ AND SHARE

 

MUST READ Unbelievable SHOCKING INFORMATION.

DD Podhigai telecast an interview with Mr P M Nair,
 (retired IAS officer, who was the Secretary to 
Dr. Abdul Kalam Sir when he was the President.)

I summarise the points he spoke in a voice choked with emotion.

Mr Nair authored a book titled *"Kalam Effect"*

1. Dr Kalam used to receive costly gifts whenever he went
 abroad as it is customary for many nations to give gifts
 to the visiting Heads of State. 

Refusing the gift would become an insult to
 the nation and an embarrassment for India. 

So, he received them and on his return, 
Dr Kalam asked the gifts to be photographed and 
then catalogued and handed over to the archives. 

Afterwards, he never even looked at them. 
He did not take even a pencil from the gifts
 received when he left Rashtrapathi Bhavan.

2. In 2002, the year Dr Kalam took over, 
the Ramadan month came in July-August. 

It was a regular practice for the 
President to host an Iftar party. 

Dr Kalam asked Mr Nair why he should host a party 
to people who are already well fed and asked him to
 find out how much would be the cost. 

Mr Nair told it would cost around Rs. 22 lakhs. 

Dr Kalam asked him to donate that amount to a 
few selected orphanages in the form of food, dresses and blankets. 

The selection of orphanages was left to a team in 
Rashtrapathi Bhavan and Dr Kalam had no role in it.

After the selection was made, Dr Kalam asked Mr Nair
 to come inside his room and gave him a cheque for Rs 1 lakh. 

He said that he was giving some amount from 
his personal savings and this should not be informed to anyone.

Mr Nair was so shocked that he said 
"Sir, I will go outside and tell everyone . 
People should know that here is a man who not
 only donated what he should have spent but 
he is giving his own money also". 

Dr Kalam though he was a devout Muslim did not have
 Iftar parties in the years in which he was the President. 

3. Dr Kalam did not like "Yes Sir" type of people. 

Once when the Chief Justice of India had come and 
on some point Dr Kalam expressed his view and asked Mr Nair,
"Do you agree?" 
Mr Nair said "No Sir, I do not agree with you". 
The Chief Justice was shocked and could not believe his ears. 

It was impossible for a civil servant to disagree
 with the President and that too so openly. 

Mr Nair told him that the President would question him
 afterwards why he disagreed and if the reason was
 logical - 99% he would change his mind.

4. Dr Kalam invited 50 of his relatives to come
 to Delhi and they all stayed in Rashtrapathi Bhavan.

He organised a bus for them to go around
 the city which was paid for by him. 

No official car was used. All their stay and food was
 calculated as per the instructions of Dr Kalam and 
the bill came to Rs 2 lakhs which he paid. 

In the history of this country no one has done it. 

Now, wait for the climax, 
Dr Kalam's elder brother stayed with him in his
 room for the entire one week as Dr Kalam 
wanted his brother to stay with him. 

When they left, 
Dr Kalam wanted to pay rent for that room also. 

Imagine the President of a country paying rent
 for the room in which he is staying.

This was any way not agreed to by the staff who
 thought the honesty was getting too much to handle!!!.

5. When Kalam Sir was to leave Rashtrapathi Bhavan 
at the end of his tenure, every staff member went and
 met him and paid their respects. 

Mr Nair went to him alone as his wife had fractured her leg
 and was confined to bed. Dr Kalam asked why his wife 
did not come. He replied that she was in bed due to an accident. 

Next day, Mr.Nair saw lot of policemen around his 
house and asked what had happened. 

They said that the President of India was coming to 
visit him in his house. He came and met his wife and 
chatted for some time. 

Mr Nair says that no president of any country would
 visit a civil servant's house and that too on such a simple pretext.

I thought I should give the details as many of you 
may not have seen the telecast and so it may be useful.

The younger brother of APJ Abdul Kalam runs
 an umbrella repairing shop. 

When Mr. Nair met him during Kalam's funeral, 
he touched his feet, in token of respect for both
 Mr. Nair and Brother.

Such information should be widely shared on 
social media as mainstream media will not show 
this because it doesn't carry the so-called GB TRP value
AND
SIR ABDUL KALAM WAS A MUSLIM

*Do forward it to whomever you know and
 Let the world know it*
