Bhubaneswar:Former President, Shri A.P.J. Abdul Kalam appealed to school children to be unique and work dedicatedly in the field of science and technology. Inaugurating the Children Science Congress on the sidelines of 99th Indian Science Congress at Bhubaneswar, Dr. Kalam answered a number of questions raised by children.
Replying to a question on how he managed to balance science and politics when he was the President of India, Kalam said, Science needs lots of money and money comes from politicians. Defending expenditure on defence programmes he expressed, I personally feel science is for people who have the capacity to do that and you can select science or humanity. He also replied question on science, space and missile technology. Earth, Moon and Mars will become economic entity in next three decades and we will be seeking lot of things from there, he added.
