National Unity Day 2020: Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s birth anniversary is celebrated as National Unity Day across the country on 31st October. Rashtriya Ekta Diwas is celebrated to give a tribute to India’s first home minister, who led the task of integrating princely states into the union of India after Independence in 1947.

Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh have officially become union territories. To mark the historic occasion, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, “We want to build a strong link of faith, the sort of faith that even Sardar Patel had dreamed of for Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh“.

In 2018, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel’s statue, called the “Statue of Unity”, was unveiled in Gujarat. It is the tallest statue in the world with a height of 182 metres. The statue depicts Sardar Patel, the first Home Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of India, in a dhoti and a shawl, towering over river Narmada.
