It has been 5 months since my brother Dr APJ Abdul Kalam passed away. Today his burial site is strewn with animal droppings all over.

There were promises made of a memorial at the burial site. But the work for this memorial has not even started.

After his death, the whole nation came together to mourn Dr Kalam’s demise and honour him. Today, his grave still lies under a makeshift shelter. Where are all the people in power?

Dr Kalam spent his whole life serving the country. The Central Government must deliver the promise and build my brother the memorial he deserves.

I am 99 years old and cannot run after them to make this happen. I need your support. This is the wish of every Indian.

Please sign my petition. With your support, we can get Union Minister of Urban Development Venkaiah Naidu to listen to us. We can get that memorial set up.

God bless you all.
