Print The former President late A.P.J. Abdul Kalam, whose mortal remains were buried in Rameswaram on Thursday, had administered an oath of leading a corruption-free life to the Karnataka legislators back in 2008. Dr. Kalam’s visit to Karnataka to inaugurate a training camp for the newly-elected legislators in December 2008, when he was the President, was recalled in the Legislative Assembly here on Thursday by Speaker Kagodu Thimmappa.
In his obituary reference, the Speaker recalled the oath: “I will become a model to everybody by leading a corruption-free life and by working honestly.”
The former President had also explained to them about his favourite theme of ‘Providing Urban facilities in Rural Areas’ (PURA), the Speaker recalled, and described the administering of oath and sharing of the PURA concept as an unforgettable moment. He also recalled Dr. Kalam’s address to a joint session of the legislature on the golden jubilee of the State’s reorganisation, during which he had made a power-point presentation on his vision for the development of Karnataka.
Leader of the Opposition Jagadish Shettar said the former President, being popularly referred to as ‘People’s President’, had bridged the gap between the Rashtrapathi Bhavan and common people. He had not only increased the respect for the post of the President, but had also set new precedent by breaking the protocol and interacting with children during official programmes, Mr. Shettar said.
Janata Dal (Secular) member Y.S.V. Datta said Dr. Kalam trusted the youth and children to change the country for the better.
‘Name Cubbon Park after Kalam’
While Karnataka Rajya Raitha Sangha member K.S. Puttannaiah urged the government to include a lesson on Dr. Kalam’s life in curriculum, BJP member Govind Karjol suggested that Cubbon Park be re-named after the former President.
