The hottest debate going on in most places these days is whether Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam should continue as the President of India and if not him who??

Scientist, author and now the `Peoples' President.

A P J Abdul Kalam's presidency has been like no other in India's history.

The President has crisscrossed the globe -- spreading the message of India's growing political and economic clout. He has also traveled the length and breath of the country meeting personnel from the armed forces, young professionals and mostly children. Be it the icy heights of Siachen or troubled Jammu and Kashmir or even the cockpit of the state-of-the-art Sukhoi fighter plane, the President has striven to inculcate the message of a young and resurgent India.

THIS is a very interesting piece that I found while researching this great man. It not only points to his greatness but also his fallacies as the President of India, indeed, the post has become mere ceremonial rather than with any kind of clout except of course for THIS one incident he has not done anything too authoritative in his tenure so the debate continues...

Should he continue, if not him, then who??
