The Future of Society Will Be Illuminated by the Torch of Education: Dr Pallavi Patel

Ghaziabad: The ideals and vision of the 'Iron Man', Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel—the architect of the nation's unity—resonated at Patel Udyan in Mohan Nagar this Sunday. During the birth anniversary celebration organised by the Sardar Patel Seva Sansthan, speakers recalled his unparalleled contributions and called for a commitment to social unity, education, and nation-building.

The chief guest, MLA Dr Pallavi Patel, stated that Sardar Patel played a historic role in forging a unified India by integrating over 500 princely states. His life stands as an exemplary testament to dedication toward the nation's unity and integrity. Reflecting on the social contributions of Dr. Sonelal Patel, founder of the Apna Dal, she emphasised that the true strength of a society lies in its unity and education. Providing better education and opportunities for future generations will serve as a robust foundation for development.

Sardar Patel Prioritised National Interest Over Personal Interests: Dr Sachan

Guest of Honor Professor Dr. C.P. Sachan remarked that Sardar Patel always placed national interest above personal concerns. At the behest of Mahatma Gandhi, he set aside his own personal ambitions. His ideals remain a beacon of inspiration for both politics and society today. Poetess Shobha Sachan added a poignant and patriotic touch to the atmosphere with her poem, "Born in the Soil of India—That Is My Identity".
