[India_Vision_2020] Re: Conferring Mahatma title to Dr Kalam - Draft for discussion



Hi all

I think its a great thing to do so! he indeed deserves the title,
though he will never expect any of it. MAHATMA KALAM i am happy to be
the first person to add this to His Excellency's name!

This one way to show our gratitude and express support to the man who
has shown us the way to be a super power!
