30/06/2001. Delhi. Dr A.P.J Abdul Kalam placed a vision in front of Swamishri. This vision encompassed transforming India from a developing to a developed country. Dr A.P.J Abdul Kalam, Y.S Rajan and 500 scientists were working on a programme called Vision 2020, revolving around 5 essential development pillars, namely education and health care, agriculture, information and communication, infrastructure, and critical technology. Dr Kalam who was moved by Swamishri’s pious lifestyle presented Vision 2020 to Swamishri. Swamishri mentioned that they should add another pillar. This pillar would be faith in God. Dr Kalam thus realised that Swamishri connects society with God.
