After paying homage to the legendary freedom fighter, Shaheed Bhagat Singh, Dr. Kalam told presspersons that science could help build a beautiful and peaceful planet, in which India could play a major role. Later, interacting with school children at Kapurthala, he reiterated the need for peace. Dr. Kalam emphasised that determination, scientific knowledge and creativity among youth carried the power to make India self-reliant in different fields. ``Nothing is impossible,'' he said citing the example of Bhagat Singh. He also visited the science city project under construction and he prayed for the prosperity of Indians at the famous Moorish Mosque here today. Prominent Muslims joined him in his afternoon prayers.
