Former President APJ Abdul Kalam's body will be kept at his official residence in New Delhi after being flown in from Guwahati in a special aircraft so that people can pay homage to the man who played a key role in shaping India's missile and nuclear programme. After being airlifted from Shillong to Guwahati in an air force helicopter, the body was flown to Delhi in a special military flight on Tuesday morning. Kalam, who would have turned 84 in October and was the head of state during 2002-2007, died after suffering a massive cardiac arrest at the IIM-Shillong on Monday evening.
