Rakhi Day is Righteous Day: APJ Abdul Kalam Poetry on Rakhi

Rakhi Day is Righteous Day: Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen Abdul Kalam; 15 October 1931 – 27 July 2015) was an Indian scientist who served as the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. He was born and raised in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu and studied physics and aerospace engineering. He spent the next four decades as a scientist and science administrator, mainly at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was intimately involved in India’s civilian space programme and military missile development efforts. He thus came to be known as the Missile Man of India for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology. He also played a pivotal organisational, technical, and political role in India‘s Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998, the first since the original nuclear test by India in 1974.

Kalam was elected as the 11th President of India in 2002 with the support of both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and the then-opposition Indian National Congress. Widely referred to as the “People’s President”, he returned to his civilian life of education, writing and public service after a single term. He was a recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honour.

Rakhi Day is Righteous Day: A beautiful poetry by Dr. Kalam

This full moon day our hearts are in brim
Feeling of faith and serenity in mind.

We light the lamps and our hears glow
Radiance of happiness and peace are in flow.

Harmonious homes are like streams of joy
Flowing and flourishing the landscape en route.

Nobility in heart and character in deed
Righteous homes alone make a beautiful State.

Sisters will tie the thread on the brothers
Abiding them to do only what is right and clean.

Put the Kumkum and blessed rice on the head
Where will dwell right thoughts and noble action.

∼ APJ Abdul Kalam
