His life journey has been depicted beautifully. He died three years before my birth and it is pretty unfortunate I could not get to see him alive. There have been many Deputy Prime Ministers and Prime Ministers, but there is and was only one 'Lohpurush' (Iron Man). Despite his differences with Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru and the different ideologies of over 550 princely states, he performed the task of uniting India and bringing these princely states to the union. Our newer generation can learn a lot from him.""I am pretty influenced by Sardar Patel. He is our 'Lohpurush'. I went to see his statue in Gujarat as well. Whenever the lives of such great men are brought before us all, it causes a lot of happiness. This will benefit the younger generation as well. Patel should be a role model for everyone. Lives of such great personalities should be a part of the school syllabus as well," added another visitor named Prashant.Since 2014, October 31, the birthday of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel is celebrated as National Unity Day to celebrate his efforts and contributions in convincing several princely states to align with the Indian Union.( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
