Rashtriya Ekta Divas (National Unity
Day) is observed every year on 31st October to commemorate Sardar Vallabhbhai
Patel's birth anniversary. It not only commemorates the birth anniversary of
Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the architect of national integration of independent
India, but also re-affirms the inherent strength and resilience of our nation
to withstand threats to the unity, integrity and security of the Country.
