#Sardarpatel

It took 2 wars, 100 million deaths, and 60 years for 50 states & 400 million people of Europe to realize the need and form a Union, that too a fragile one...

Sardar Patel united 565 states and 400 million diverse people in 6 months. That was the caliber of the man.
When the others set out to enjoy the dawn of Freedom, Sardar Patel set out to a daunting task of unifying India.

565 Princely states, 565 aspirations to be the ‘Ruler’ and all these sided their aspirations in front of this man. That was the respect he commanded.
Sardar Patel handled 565 states and a man (not to be named) handled one state: Kashmir.

The rest of India is united and Kashmir is still bleeding with a part of it in hands of Pakistan.

On the death anniversary of #SardarVallabhbhaiPatel will be taking a look at his life. This will be quite a long thread, as there is a whole lot to this man, who made modern India. The Iron Man of India to whom we owe a lot. Image
When one thinks of #SardarVallabhbhaiPatel , there is just so much to the man, that it is well impossible to explore his life in a thread. But if I had to choose one part of his life, it would be the way he integrated, 500 odd princely states, into one nation.
Imagine having to deal with multiple mini states, each having their own set of issues, and welding them into one single nation. Add to it, a newly independent India, dealing with the trauma of Partition, the Pakistan attack on Kashmir, and u had Hyderabad.

अपराध शास्त्र शोध में किसी घटना के घटित होने के पहले यह जान लेना चाहिए आखिर वो क्यो हो रही है इससे सबसे ज्यादा लाभ या नुकसान किसे हो रहा है मतलब इस घटना का मोटिव या मकसद क्या है जब आप अशोक स्तंभ को बदलने के फैसले को इस एंगल से सोचेंगे तो आपको सारी तस्वीर समझ आ जाएगी !!! 2/n
आप पहले की घटनाओं की #क्रोनोलॉजी को समझिए 2013 में यूनिटी रन होती है घर-घर से लोहा इकट्ठा किया जाता है सलीके से सरदार पटेल जैसे संघ विरोधी को संघ का समर्थक बताया जाता है स्टेच्यू आफ लिबर्टी की तर्ज पर उनकी सबसे बड़ी मूर्ति बनाई जाती है #statueofunity 3/n

Journey of Sardar: From Gandhi hater to his biggest soldier

We know the partnership of Sardar and Gandhi in our Independence movement but do you know what Vallabhbhai Patel said about Gandhi and his Satyagraha or Ahimsa when he met him for the first time?

[THREAD 🧵] Image
The story begins when Vallabhbhai Patel heard about a leader, Mahatma Gandhi his reaction to this was “We already have too many mahatmas” & when he heard that the Mahatma believed that India can gain Independence from Satyagraha and Ahimsa, Patel laughed and made others laugh.
Even more with his ridicule of the “crank” and sarcasm about Gandhi's “brilliant ideas.”

Patel also laughed when Gandhi and Vallabhbhai Patel met for the first time. When Gandhiji reached Gujarat Club (where Vallabhbhai used to play bridge) Mavlankar, who had been watching...+

An interesting anecdote about #SardarPatel, shared by PM Shri Narendra Modi in one of the editions of #MannKiBaat (October 2018)!

Do read the thread..
"Six months or so before Independence, on the 27th of January, 1947, the world – famous international Magazine ‘Time’ had a photograph of Sardar Patel on the cover page of that edition."

- PM Shri Narendra Modi in #MannKiBaat (October 2018).

#SardarPatel
"In their lead story, they had depicted a map of India; it was nowhere close to what the map looks like now. It was the map of an India that was divided into myriad fragments. There existed over 550 princely states."

- PM Shri Narendra Modi in #MannKiBaat (October 2018).

भारत की स्वतंत्रता के समय सभी की दृष्टि कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष पद की और थी,क्योंकि स्वतंत्रता के बाद कांग्रेस के तत्कालीन अध्यक्ष को भारत का प्रथम प्रधानमंत्री होने का गौरव प्राप्त होता।अध्यक्ष पद की दौड़ में दो लोग शामिल थे, एक थे नेहरू और दूसरे थे #SardarVallabhbhaiPatel 1/4
#Thread
जब परिणाम सामने आये, तो सब चौंक गए। 15 में से 12 राज्य समितियों ने #SardarPatel के नाम का समर्थन किया, जबकि 3 राज्यों ने किसी के भी नाम का समर्थन नहीं किया। इस प्रकार पंडित जवाहरलाल नेहरू को किसी का भी समर्थन प्राप्त नहीं हुआ। 2/4
अतः यह तय हो गया था कि #SardarVallabhbhaiPatel ही अगले कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष होंगे, परन्तु महात्मा गांधी पंडित नेहरू को प्रधानमंत्री के रूप में देखना चाहते थे, इसलिए उन्होंने #SardarPatel पर अपना नाम वापस लेने का दबाव बनाया। 3/4

Not Merger,But Liberation - The Nizamian times of terror, riven by rape and rapine, the long decades of death and dishonour, were finally ended by Indian Army that marched into Hyderabad city on September 17, 1948

Weeks before his death on Dec 15, 1950, Sardar Patel wrote two critical letters warning Pandit Nehru and G. S. Bajpai about the dangers that India faced. He mentioned everything from Communists smuggling arms in the north-east to the influence of missionaries on the Naga tribes
to India's unbalanced equation with China. He pointed out that 'there was a lack of firmness and unnecessary apology' in the attitude of the Indian ambassador to China. In fact, he pointed out that often the Indian ambassador to China sounded like the Chinese ambassador to India!
Patel warned Nehru that the prime minister's strategy of championing the cause of China's entry into the United Nations was flawed and 'the Chinese do not regard (us) as their friends'. Patel also warned that Nehru's idea that the Himalayas were a natural barrier between India

🇮🇳wouldn’t have suffered at the hands of @INCIndia for 70yrs had
#SardarVallabhbhaiPatel become our 1st PM!
1946,only 1 of the 16 PCC Presidents voted for #Nehru ,15 for #SardarPatel
#Gandhi used his veto power in favour of #Nehru because he’d threatened to split the Congress!
#Gandhi had a soft corner for #Nehru since the beginning
he had preferred Nehru over #SardarPatel twice for the post of Congress president, in 1929 & 1937.
Nehru made it clear that he’d not play 2nd fiddle to anybody
Gandhi feared that he’d revolt if denied PM’s post!
High Command’s Forced Decision making, Democracy @INCIndia ?
Follies of #Nehru on Kashmir,China proved-
showing utter disregard to overwhelming support from majority of PCCs for #SardarVallabhBhaiPatel
#Gandhi made a blunder by imposing Nehru on Nation weary of Colonial burden!
