Claim: The UN declared 15 October, Dr APJ Abdul Kalam's birthday, as World Students' Day.
Fact-check: The UN never recognised Abdul Kalam's birthday as World Students' Day - FACTLY
Verdict: the un did not proclaim abdul kalam's birthday as world students' day. in fact, much earlier, in december 2007, the un adopted a resolution designating 15 october as the international day of rural women. representations were made in the past to the central government to declare kalam's birthday as national students' day. however, the central government has not made any decision in this regard as on date. hence, the claim made in the post is false.
