Kalam pays tribute to his role model scientists Wednesday, January 05, 2005
AHMEDABAD: President A.P.J. Abdul Kalam is a role model for many, but who are his role models? He answered the question while addressing a special session of the 92nd session of the Indian Science Congress here Wednesday. "There are three people I admire most: D.A. Kothari, Homi Bhabha and Vikram Sarabhai," he said. "Kothari was the country's first scientific advisor to the defence minister. Homi Bhaha started the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (TIFR) and later established the Atomic Energy Commission. "Vikram Sarabhai, my 'guru', established the Physical Research Laboratory (PRL)," he said. Kalam added that all the three were physicists who contributed to the nation's development.
