उत्तर
Famous Personality,
APJ Abdul Kalam.
My favourite famous personality is APJ Abdul Kalam. He is also known as “The Missile Man of India”. He is a man of humble personality. He became the eleventh President of India. He loved students and education both in life and death. He allowed him to breathe his last gasp while lecturing to the student at 11M Shillong in July 2015.
He was a very talented person. He was appointed as the project director of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO). As a director, he led many successful missile and rock launching projects. He also received many prestigious Indian awards like the Bharat Ratna, Padma Bhushan, and PadmaVibhushan.
From being a simple man, he rose to the greatest position of heading the Indian nation. Hard work and dedication are the inspiring qualities that made Abdul Kalam famous. He is an example for adults and children.
