Good day to one and all. Today, I am going to speak about my favourite hero, Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam.
He was a man from Rameshwaram who dreamt of touching the sky by becoming a pilot. He ended up being one of the most popular Presidents of India.
He was well known for his contributions to science. He was a motivational speaker. He was also an academician and wrote many inspirational books.
He developed missiles AGNI ( a ballistic missile) and PRITHVI (surface to surface missile). Thus he was known as the Missile Man of India.
He received doctorates from nearly 40 universities, including Edinburg University and Oakland University.
Switzerland commemorates May 26 as Science Day in memory of APJ Abdul Kalam as it was on this day in 2005 when he visited the country.
Even in his death, Dr. Kalam gave us a message worth remembering. He died doing what he loved the most – teaching and igniting young people’s minds with his words of wisdom. Thank you all for listening to my speech.

Additional Delivering A Speech:
Deliver a speech on “Healthy foods”:
Healthy foods
A very good morning to all present here. Today I am going to speak about healthy foods.
Eating the right foods keeps us healthy, without disease, and gives us long life. So it is essential to know about healthy foods.
Healthy foods are all naturally available foods around us. Most of them are cheap. Cereals, fruits, and vegetables are available everywhere. Most of them may be eaten raw to get all the nutrients present in them.
When natural foods are cooked in too much water, the nutrients are lost. When we remove the outer coats of fruits and vegetables, the high nutrients in them are lost.
There should be variety in the foods we eat. Seasonal fruits and vegetables are easily available and cheap too. They strengthen our organs.
When natural foods are healthy and tasty, we need not go for junk foods that are harmful and brings in problems like indigestion.
Let’s take a pledge today to eat healthy foods and keep away junk foods.
