Section B: Long Answer Type Questions (5 Marks Each) - 7 Nos

31. Describe the early life, family background, and the struggles young Kalam faced during his childhood. (ଯୁବକ କଲାମଙ୍କ ପ୍ରାରମ୍ଭିକ ଜୀବନ, ପାରିବାରିକ ପୃଷ୍ଠଭୂମି ଏବଂ ତାଙ୍କ ପିଲାଦିନର ସଂଘର୍ଷ ବର୍ଣ୍ଣନା କର |)

Answer: Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam was born on October 15, 1931, in a Tamil Muslim family in Rameswaram. His father, Jainulabdeen, was a modest boat owner who ferried Hindu pilgrims, and his mother, Ashiamma, was a housewife. He was the youngest of five siblings. Although his ancestors had once been wealthy traders and landowners, the family fell on hard times and lost everything by the time Kalam was born. Experiencing severe poverty during his early childhood, Kalam had to work hard. He took up the job of selling newspapers early in the morning just to supplement his family's meager income, displaying a strong sense of responsibility from a very young age.

32. Narrate the incident involving Kalam, his science teacher Sivasubramania Iyer, and the teacher's wife. What is the moral of this event? (କଲାମ, ତାଙ୍କ ବିଜ୍ଞାନ ଶିକ୍ଷକ ଶିବସୁବ୍ରମଣ୍ୟ ଆୟର ଏବଂ ଶିକ୍ଷକଙ୍କ ପତ୍ନୀଙ୍କ ସହ ଜଡିତ ଘଟଣା ବର୍ଣ୍ଣନା କର | ଏହି ଘଟଣାର ନୈତିକ ଶିକ୍ଷା କ'ଣ?)

Answer: While at his elementary school, Kalam had an affectionate science teacher named Sivasubramania Iyer who treated him like his own. Once, the teacher invited Kalam to his home for a meal. However, the teacher's orthodox wife refused to serve food to a Muslim child in her kitchen. Unbothered, the teacher served Kalam himself. During the meal, the wife observed Kalam's polite behavior and cleanliness. This observation entirely changed her conservative mindset. When Kalam was invited a second time, she warmly welcomed him and served him with her own hands. The moral of the story is that human goodness, good manners, and patience can slowly eradicate the deepest walls of religious prejudice and social discrimination.

33. Explain the difficulties Kalam faced in pursuing his higher education and how his sister proved to be a savior. (ଉଚ୍ଚଶିକ୍ଷା ହାସଲ କରିବାରେ କଲାମ ସମ୍ମୁଖୀନ ହୋଇଥିବା ଅସୁବିଧା ଏବଂ ତାଙ୍କ ଭଉଣୀ କିପରି ତ୍ରାଣକର୍ତ୍ତା ପ୍ରମାଣିତ ହେଲେ ତାହା ବୁଝାଅ |)

Answer: After graduating in Physics from Saint Joseph's College in 1954, Kalam wanted to fulfill his lifelong dream of becoming a pilot. He applied for aerospace engineering at the prestigious Madras Institute of Technology. Although he was selected based on merit, the admission required a fee of about a thousand rupees. For his poverty-stricken family, this was an enormous amount and an incredibly expensive affair. Seeing his desperate desire to learn, his compassionate elder sister, Asim Zohra, stepped in as a savior. She sacrificed and mortgaged her own gold ornaments to arrange the required money. Thanks to her profound love and financial support, Kalam successfully completed his engineering in 1960.

34. Trace Dr. Kalam's scientific career progression from HAL to his achievements at ISRO. (HAL ରୁ ଇସ୍ରୋରେ ତାଙ୍କର ସଫଳତା ପର୍ଯ୍ୟନ୍ତ ଡକ୍ଟର କଲାମଙ୍କ ବୈଜ୍ଞାନିକ ବୃତ୍ତିଗତ ପ୍ରଗତିର ବର୍ଣ୍ଣନା କର |)

Answer: Dr. Kalam began his illustrious career humbly as a trainee at the Hindustan Aeronautics Limited (HAL) in Bangalore. Eager to contribute to national defense, he soon joined the Defence Research Development Organisation (DRDO) as a scientist. His true genius found a broader platform when he was transferred to the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) in 1969. At ISRO, he was appointed as the Project Director for India's first Satellite Launch Vehicle (SLV-III). This was a highly complex technological challenge. Under his direct, meticulous guidance and supervision, the team achieved a historic milestone when the first Rohini satellite was successfully launched into Earth's orbit in 1980.

35. Discuss Dr. Kalam's role in the Integrated Missile Development Programme (IGMDP) and the Pokhran-II tests. Why is he called "The Missile Man"? (ସମନ୍ୱିତ କ୍ଷେପଣାସ୍ତ୍ର ବିକାଶ କାର୍ଯ୍ୟକ୍ରମ (IGMDP) ଏବଂ ପୋଖରାନ-୨ ପରୀକ୍ଷଣରେ ଡକ୍ଟର କଲାମଙ୍କ ଭୂମିକା ଆଲୋଚନା କର | ତାଙ୍କୁ କାହିଁକି "କ୍ଷେପଣାସ୍ତ୍ର ମାନବ" କୁହାଯାଏ?)

Answer: After 19 years at ISRO, Dr. Kalam returned to DRDO to head the Integrated Missile Development Programme (IGMDP). Under his visionary leadership, India successfully developed four strategic missiles: Prithvi, Trishul, Akash, and Nag. Because of this massive contribution to India's military missile technology, he earned the title "The Missile Man of India." Furthermore, in 1998, as the chief of DRDO, he supervised the highly secretive and successful Pokhran-II nuclear tests. He camped in the scorching 53-degree heat of the Thar Desert for a fortnight to ensure success, an event he called a "defining moment" that marked India's emergence as a global nuclear power.

36. Summarize the honors, awards, and the ultimate political position achieved by Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam during his lifetime. (ଡକ୍ଟର ଏ.ପି.ଜେ. ଅବଦୁଲ କଲାମଙ୍କ ଜୀବନକାଳ ମଧ୍ୟରେ ହାସଲ କରିଥିବା ସମ୍ମାନ, ପୁରସ୍କାର ଏବଂ ଚରମ ରାଜନୈତିକ ପଦବୀର ସାରାଂଶ ଲେଖ |)

Answer: Dr. Kalam's immense contributions to science, space, and defense did not go unnoticed. He served as the Chief Scientific Adviser to the Prime Minister from 1992 to 1999. The Government of India recognized his exceptional service by awarding him the Padma Bhushan in 1981, the Padma Vibhushan in 1990, and finally, the nation's highest civilian honor, the Bharat Ratna, in 1997. The climax of his public life came in 2002 when he was elected as the 11th President of India. Because of his humility, simple lifestyle, and deep connection with students and the common masses, he was widely and affectionately referred to as the "People's President."

37. Evaluate Dr. Kalam's legacy. Based on the chapter, what makes him an eternal inspiration for the youth of India? (ଡକ୍ଟର କଲାମଙ୍କ ଐତିହ୍ୟର ମୂଲ୍ୟାଙ୍କନ କର | ଅଧ୍ୟାୟ ଉପରେ ଆଧାର କରି କେଉଁ କଥା ତାଙ୍କୁ ଭାରତୀୟ ଯୁବକମାନଙ୍କ ପାଇଁ ଏକ ଚିରନ୍ତନ ପ୍ରେରଣା ଦାୟକ କରେ?)

Answer: Dr. Kalam's legacy is defined by his journey from selling newspapers in a poor coastal town to becoming the President of the world's largest democracy. His life proves that hard work, perseverance, and education can conquer all obstacles. He possessed a relentless dedication to making India technologically self-reliant. Even after achieving the highest political office, he remained a humble teacher at heart. His death occurred while doing what he loved most—delivering a lecture to students in Shillong. His selfless service, visionary scientific achievements, and unwavering belief in the potential of the younger generation make him an eternal icon and inspiration for the youth of India.
