All the countries’ leaders from across the globe have been showering in their condolences messages to the departed scientist and pioneer in space exploration, Bharat Ratna APJ Abdul Kalam. All the developed nations too have praised the visionary’s skill and efforts to develop India’s nuclear program.
However, the neighboring country Pakistan doesn’t seem to accept Kalam’s greatness. In an interview given to the BBC, Pakistan’s prominent scientist Abdul Khader Khan started that Kalam is an ordinary scientist and that it was Russia that developed India’s missile program.
Abdul Khader further said that he doesn’t remember any landmark services offered by Kalam in the fields of astrophysics and satellite technology. Khader then ranted that Kalam didn’t deserve to be the President of India and that the BJP had made him the President to gain Muslim votes, following the communal riots in 2002.
Abdul Khader, who is considered the father of nuclear technology in Pakistan, later faced allegations of black marketing the country’s nuclear launch codes. Social media cross the country is furious over his prejudiced comments on Kalam.
