Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel Anniversary

PM Modi said for India, its unity has never been a necessity, but has been its uniqueness. "This unity of our country has been eyesore for our enemies. Not just today, but from thousands of years," he said.

Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel Birth Anniversary: The "Run for Unity" this year will mark the 144th birth anniversary of Sardar Patel, the "Iron Man of India".

The birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India's first home minister and freedom fighter, is being observed as Rashtriya Ekta Diwas in India.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday appealed people to come out in large numbers to participate in the "Run for Unity" to be organised across the country to mark the 144th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, on October 31.

India is "surrounded with possibilities, not with incapabilities," Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh said on Wednesday, while flagging off a 'Run for Unity' to commemorate the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel.

A delegation sent by the Gujarat government yesterday called on Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar and invited him to a function next week to unveil a gigantic statue of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel.

On Monday, to celebrate the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel, a charity run called 'Run for Unity' is being organised at the National Stadium. Approximately 15,000 people are expected to take part in the event, who will all arrive in buses or cars and the programme is likely to cause traffic congestion around India Gate.

In an apparent move to woo the Patel (Kurmi) community ahead of 2017 state assembly elections, the Uttar Pradesh government is likely to declare a holiday on October 31 to mark Sardar Vallabh Bhai Patel's birth anniversary.
