This unsung song was penned by a person who is ever-youth and ever-inspiring to the millions of young and Ignited Minds of India. He always dreamt of making Indian youth to unleash their Wings of Fire in resonating our country's bright and sustained future. His vision for 2020 can only be achieved by making this the Youth Anthem of India.
"As a young citizen of India,
armed with technology, knowledge and love for my nation,
I realize, small aim is a crime.
I will work and sweat for a great vision,
the vision of transforming India into a developing nation
powered by economic strength with value system.
I am one of the citizens of a billion,
only the vision will ignite the billion souls.
It has entered into me,
the ignited soul compared to any resource,
is the most powerful resource
on the earth, above the earth and under the earth.
I will keep the lamp of knowledge burning
to achieve the vision - DEVELOPED INDIA."
You know "he" about whom I was rounding. Before yelling out his name, I wish to say where he stood in (t)his Independent India. He was awarded with all the three highest civilian awards in the Republic of India, BHARAT RATNA, PADMA VIBHUSHAN, PADMA BHUSHAN.... He also served the Nation in many roles starting from a scientist in DRDO till the Principal Scientific Advisor to the Government (equivalent to a cabinet rank) and reaching the apex by gracing the post of the highest authority of the India (as per the constitution), THE PRESIDENT....
Yes, I'm talking about the same person who caught your mind....
Bharat Ratna, Padma Vibhushan, Padma Bhushan, Dr. Avul Pakir Jainulabddin Abdul Kalam Azad.
PS: This post is from his book to whom it was addressed, "IGNITED MINDS". Also, you can consider this post as an agreement to the movement of making him again the first person of this country.
