Former Indian President APJ Abdul Kalam has been chosen for supposedly prestigious international award for his outstanding social service.
I have not mentioned the name of the award because I dont what it is and how prestigious it is. I am also not sure whether a former indian president and India as a whole should feel how much great about it. I am posting this simply because I myself did not know of Abdul Kalam's work in the area and would like to mention that work.
He had initiated a project to making state-of-the-art healthcare affordable to common man, bringing quality medical care to rural areas by linking doctors and technocrats, using spin-offs of defense technology to create state-of-the-art medical equipments, launching telemedicine projects connecting rural based hospitals with speciality hospitals.
