About Sardar Patel
Patel climbed through the ranks of the Indian National Congress, eventually becoming the party's president in 1931. He received the title of 'Sardar' which means 'chief' in Hindi, Persian, and Urdu. Patel became India's first Home Minister and Deputy Prime Minister after the country's independence in 1947. Patel was instrumental in the post-independence integration of over 500 princely states under the Indian Dominion. He earned the title of 'Iron Man of India,' due to his uncompromising commitment to national integration.
Patel died on 15 December 1950. In 1991, India's highest civilian honour, the Bharat Ratna, was bestowed on him posthumously. In 2014, his birthday was marked as Rashtriya Ekta Divas (National Unity Day).
