For a picture of not so great quality, this one is actually special. Why? Look close. The second gentleman (seated)" from your right. Does he look familiar? He is errr...a former President. He is who children love and loves them too. He has a vision for the country. I do not agree with some ideas he spells out for development, but admire him all the same. He is Abdul Kalam. The studio pic was shot when he worked at Aeronautical Development Establishment, Bangalore. Seated on extreme left is a close friend of his, Mr Dhanaseelan who was kind enough to let me get it scanned, a few days before he assumed office as President. It was published originally in The New Indian Express, Bangalore.
