Leaders at the time didn’t consider the election significant enough to be documented in detail, which ended up leaving room for propaganda. But what really happened?
On Sardar Patel’s birth anniversary, India’s youngest civil servants will pledge their commitment to constitutional values at the Statue of Unity. He’s the civil services’ patron saint.
On 12 February 1949, Vallabhbhai Patel gave a speech at Chennai's Island Grounds where he spoke about the importance of unity and how the government had been dealing with the RSS movement.
