\u201cRashtriya Ekta Diwas, celebrated every year on October 31st on the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the architect of India\u2019s unity, reminds us of the importance of unity in safeguarding the sovereignty and integrity of the nation. This year, Rashtriya Ekta Diwas is especially significant as it marks the 150th birth anniversary of Sardar Patel. This padyatra is being organised as part of the My Bharat, Youth Affairs and Sports Ministry\u2019s Sardar@150 Unity March celebrations honouring the Iron Man of India, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel,\u201d said Dr. Saha.<\/p>\n
Dr. Saha said that its main objective is to remember the contribution of Sardar Patel, the architect of India\u2019s unity, and to inculcate the spirit of unity, patriotism, and responsibility among the youth of the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe basic spirit of this initiative is Ek Bharat, Atmanirbhar Bharat. To commemorate the 150th birth anniversary of the Iron Man of India, Bharat Ratna Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, various programmes have been organised in different fields in our state Tripura as well. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, India\u2019s first Deputy Prime Minister and Home Minister, played a vital role in establishing the unity of the country after independence. Sardar Patel dreamed of a united and strong India. He firmly believed that India\u2019s strength lies in its diversity. We all know that during India\u2019s independence, especially between 1947 and 1949, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel integrated approximately 560 princely states into India. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel is a champion of the unity and integrity of the nation. He dedicated his entire life to safeguarding India\u2019s unity and integrity and played a very important role in building the administrative structure of the country,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
He added that since 2014, in honour of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, our respected Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been celebrating Rashtriya Ekta Diwas across the country.<\/p>\n
\u201cIn honour of Sardar Patel, the Government of India is celebrating the Sardar@150 Unity March this year in Gujarat with the aim of making the country stronger, building a prosperous India, and inspiring everyone to be patriotic. The Sardar@150 Unity March is being organised in various phases across the country. District-level padyatras have been organised from 31st October to 25th November, and it has been celebrated with great enthusiasm in Tripura as well,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
