History Of Sardar Vallbhbhai Patel
Full Name: Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel
Date and Place of Birth: 31 October 1875, Nadiad, Gujarat
Death: December 15, 1950, Bombay [now Mumbai] (Age 75)
Father: Jhaverbhai Patel
Mother: Ladba Devi
Nickname: Sardar Patel, Iron Man, The Pioneer of All India Services
Education: Advocate (England)
Post: Home Minister (15 August 1947 - 15 December 1950)
Children: Maniben Patel, Dahyabhai Patel
The family was an agriculturist one of the Lewa Patidar Community, and could in terms of economic status be described as lower middle-class. It was poor and had no tradition of education.
Vallabhbhai’s childhood was spent away from books, in the ancestral fields at Karamsad. He was already in his late teens when he passed out from the Middle School at Karamsad and went to the High School at Nadiad, from where he matriculated in 1897.
Vallabhbhai was a mature young man of twenty-two when he matriculated. Owing to the impecunious circumstances of the family, higher education was not within his reach. The next best thing was to take a course in law and set up as a country lawyer. This he did and established a small practice at Godhra.
“There were many who used to think that a diverse country like India can never remain united. It will fall apart. But, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel showed how it is done. We should learn how to grow from strength to strength, how to always stay united.
Sardar Patel used Kautilya's wisdom and Shivaji Maharaj's bravery to achieve the great feat of uniting India after partition. He did something that was unparalleled. From Kutch to Kohima, from Kashmir to Kanyakumari, Sardar Patel united the country.
