New Delhi, Oct 31: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday paid tribute to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel on his birth anniversary and stressed on unity among people. Virtually addressing the 'Rashtriya Ekta Diwas' function being held at the Statue of Unity in Kevadia in Gujarat's Narmada district, the Prime Minister said the united country can attain its goals. “Our goals can only be met if we stay united. Sardar Patel always wanted India to be strong, inclusive, sensitive, alert, polite & developed. He always gave importance to nation's interest,” the PM said. “To secure its interest, India has started a journey on a new mission of Aatmanirbhar,” he added. “Ideals that cherish national unity have been given new heights. Be it J&K, Northeast or any village in the Himalayas, today all are on the path of progress. The development of modern infrastructure in the country is reducing the gap b/w geographical & historic distances,” Modi said. He said strong foundation of democracy that developed in the society and traditions of India, prospered the sense of 'Ek Bharat, shreshth Bharat'. “But we must also remember that all the passengers sitting in a boat have to take care of the boat. We can go ahead only if we stay united,” the PM said.
