Commemoration of Sardar Patel’s 150th Birth Anniversary:
The government will celebrate the 150th birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel with a nationwide program spanning two years, from 2024 to 2026. Announced by Union Home Minister Amit Shah on October 23, 2024, the initiative aims to honor Patel’s monumental contributions to India, particularly his vision in establishing one of the world’s most robust democracies and his pivotal role in unifying the nation from Kashmir to Lakshadweep. This commemoration not only recognizes Patel’s historical significance but also reinforces the current government’s commitment to national unity.
