The Real Iron Man !

31st October has a great importance in the History of Indian. On this auspicious day a stalwart, a legend was born, stalwart who provide us the present map or geography of our India. A son of a farmer who combined 565 princely states into the largest democracy of the world - Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel – A man who constructed India. A person who was raised in poverty, worked hard for his place, never compromised with the rights of poor people and with his principles. He is often known often known as the "Iron Man of India" or "Bismarck of India", he is also remembered as the "Patron Saint" of India's civil servants for establishing modern all-India services. It was he who introduced IAS exams, by the motif to connect more and more youth in the Governmental machinery.
He was raised in the countryside of Gujarat. Sardar Patel was a successful lawyer, but due to the influence of Gandhi ji he left law and joined the Freedom movement. He was a strict devotee of Mahatma Gandhi and he believed in the Gandhi ji’s ideas and philosophy. Patel did not hesitate in using the policy of ‘Saam- Daam- Dand- Bhed’ (to teach, to convince, to punish and to differ) for achieving his objective among the owners of princely states. Such was his resolution that princely states were left with no other option but to merge with India, for the good of India, for the idea of unbreakable India. He is considered as very bright and genius leader of all time, he was a visionary person and was always successful in judging someone.
After winning the election of congress president, in 1946 Sardar Patel was going to be the first prime minister, but due to Nehru’s betrayal he could not achieve it. He was not given the respect which he deserved. I think we should have “Sardar Patel” in many things like currency, we should have a national holiday on 31st October; poverty removal plans, we should have statues on the honor of Sardar Patel. Bad luck of our nation is that we have named everything on the Nehru-Gandhi family, but not anything in the name of Sardar Patel or Bhagat Singh. It’s really sad that most of the Indians don’t know about his contribution, his family, his principles, but we can give a huge lecture on Nehru and Gandhi, really it can happen here. He took responsibility of all India except J&K, he gave full result on adding every princely state, while Nehru took responsibility of Jammu & Kashmir and he failed badly.

31st October, 2014 GOI is going to conduct a “Run for Unity” on the honor of Sardar Patel. I expect this initiative could be more successful than expected. I hope every citizen of India could realize the involvement of him in uniting the nation. He is an unsung hero of, he never asked for any favors and he never got what he actually deserved. We should honor this person every time; I hope I have expressed my feelings among you. I hope you have enjoyed it while reading!
