Avul Pakir Jainulabdeen "A. P. J." Abdul Kalam (Listeni/ˈæbdʊl kəˈlɑːm/; 15 October 1931 – 27 July 2015) was the 11th President of India from 2002 to 2007. A career scientist[clarification needed] turned reluctant politician, Kalam was born and raised in Rameswaram, Tamil Nadu, and studied physics and aerospace engineering. He spent the next four decades as a scientist and science administrator, mainly at the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) and Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and was intimately involved in India's civilian space program and military missile development efforts.[2] He thus came to be known as the Missile Man of India for his work on the development of ballistic missile and launch vehicle technology.[3][4][5] He also played a pivotal organizational, technical, and political role in India's Pokhran-II nuclear tests in 1998, the first since the original nuclear test by India in 1974.[6]
Kalam was elected President of India in 2002 with the support of both the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party and the opposition Indian National Congress. After serving a term of five years, he returned to his civilian life of education, writing and public service. He was a recipient of several prestigious awards, including the Bharat Ratna, India's highest civilian honour.

Do You Need to Print? Write Off Paper – Go Electronic !!


With an aim of saving precious paper pulp, Labour Department of the Delhi government has asked all its officials, including all deputy commissioners, to write notes on both sides of paper and type in single space. 


The department has issued a circular directing officials to take such steps to minimise the impact on environment as trees are the major source of paper pulp production. 

"Injudicious use of paper not only leads to infructuous expenditure but also impacts the environment as trees are the major source of paper pulp production," said a senior government official. 

The official said notes should be typed/written on both sides of the paper or note sheet, adding that besides, typing should be done in single space. 

The department's move come after Finance Ministry recently issued such guidelines to all Ministries in this regard. 

According to the department, copies should not be typed again in the case the draft itself is legible and does not contain many corrections. 

It further added that policy instruction and guidelines issued through orders and office memorandums etc. may be uploaded on website and number of hard copies of such communication may be limited to the required minimum. 

Manual submission of forms etc., wherever stipulated, either under statutory obligations or otherwise, should be discouraged and switching over to e-forms, online submission of forms etc. may be encouraged, the department said.
