Shatrughan Sinha condoles Kalam's death

Terming former President A P J Abdul Kalam as a great scientist, genius and a fine intellectual, BJP MP Shatrughan Sinha said the Kalam's death was an "irreparable loss."

"Apart from being a great scientist and genius in his own field, Kalam was very popular among the children. After Pandit Nehru, he was the most loved statesman by the young ones.

"I had a rich and fond interaction with him when he was President during the earlier NDA government and found him to be a great visionary," said Sinha, the Patna Sharif MP.

"Kalam's contribution for Bihar was huge and he had a passion for the people of the state as he always wanted growth of Bihar and its proper development," Sinha added.
