As soon as the Assembly met, Leader of the House Akhilesh Yadav read out his condolence message and leaders of BSP, BJP, Congress and RLD also lauded works done by Kalam for the country.
As a mark of respect to the "people's President", members of the Assembly observed silence for two minutes before the proceedings were adjourned for the day.
Later, Speaker Mata Prasad Pandey said that he would apprise the feelings of the House to the family members of Kalam.
Legislative Council was also adjourned after paying tributes to Kalam.
