Hi guys,
Hope you all are doing good and enjoying Sunday. I am doing good too. Today, 31st October is celebrated as "National Unity Day".
It's celebrated in honour of the freedom fighter Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. It was introduced in 2014 by Government of India. It's celebrated to mark the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel who had played a major role in the political integration of India.
He was nicknamed as "Iron Man of India". He had persuaded over 500 princely states to accede to the independent Indian Union. He integrated all princely states into the newly independent India.
I just wanted to share it with you guys. Have a lovely day. Take care!!!

It's great that we finally have a day to celebrate this great personality. He inspires generations. A truly remarkable personality and Nation should be proud of him.
Have you seen the Statue of Unity?

@Rashnag I thought that since you are in Gujarat, you might have been there It is the first thing that we have plans to visit as soon as we get back to vacation mode again. It is a long pending one.
