On Sunday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi honored Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel on his death anniversary. On the social media platform X, he praised Patel, calling him an inspiration for India’s unity and strength. Modi wrote, “Many salutes to the Iron Man of India. His personality and work will inspire us as we strive for a united and developed India.”

Home Minister Amit Shah also shared a tribute on X, celebrating Patel as a symbol of unity. He said, “I remember Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel on his death anniversary. He laid the groundwork for modern India by bringing together over 550 princely states into one nation. His commitment to national unity will always guide those who prioritize the country’s interests.”

Defence Minister Rajnath Singh joined in by saying, “Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s contributions will never be forgotten. My heartfelt respects to him on this special day. India will always remember his vision and work.”

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, known as the Iron Man of India, was born on October 31, 1875, in Nadiad, Gujarat. He played a vital role in India’s struggle for freedom and helped unify more than 500 princely states after independence. He was also the first Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister of India. To honor him, the Indian government declared October 31 as National Unity Day in 2014. This day is celebrated across the country with events like ‘Run for Unity’.

Patel passed away on December 15, 1950, from a heart attack at Birla House in Mumbai. He was awarded the Bharat Ratna, India’s highest civilian honor, posthumously in 1991.
