Abdul Kalam was loved by all people irrespective of religion. Kalam was born into a Muslim family but it doesn't restricted people to showcase their love on him.
Now Kalam was laid to rest by a Hindu. 54-year-old Ganesan dig the grave on Thursday morning to lay to rest the 11th President of India.
The 54-year-old admits that he first heard about Kalam only this May when the former President visited his home town. Ganesan recalls that Kalam smiled at him when he looked at Ganesan who was then cleaning the compound of the masjid.
"I met him when I was cleaning the masjid compound. I just folded my hands, I think he smiled at me," Ganesan said
