dated November 2, 1957: Tributes to Sardar Patel

Congress workers in Bombay on October 31 paid homage to the memory of the late Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel at a public meeting held at the Congress House in Bombay on the occasion of his eighty-third birthday. Mr. K.K. Shah, President of the BPCC, who presided, narrated the achievements of the Sardar in the country’s political life both before and after independence. The only organisation capable of carrying on the tasks set before the nation by her departed leaders like the Sardar was the Congress and it was therefore the duty of the people to rally behind the Congress, he added.
