New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate APJ Abdul Kalam’s memorial in Rameshwaram in Tamil Nadu and attend several other programmes today, the second death anniversary of the former president.

The prime minister will hoist the national flag at the memorial designed and built by the Defence Research and Development Organisation (DRDO) in Pei Karumbu, the PMO had said in a statement here yesterday.

He will unveil a statue of Kalam and offer floral tributes besides interacting with his family members.

Later, the PM would flag off ‘Kalam Sandesh Vahini’, an exhibition bus which would travel across various states of the country and reach Rashtrapati Bhavan on October 15, the birth anniversary of the former President, the statement said.
