The meeting took place ahead of the National Unity Day celebrations scheduled for October 31 at Ekta Nagar in Gujarat’s Narmada district, marking the 151st birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.

On October 17, Bhupendra Patel visited Ekta Nagar to review preparations for the celebrations and launch Ekta Prakash Parv-2026.

During the visit, Patel chaired a review meeting with officials at Arogya Van and inspected the main parade venue and arrangements for visitors.

The annual National Unity Day programme is held at the Statue of Unity, a 182-metre monument dedicated to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel that has become a major tourist attraction.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi will likely pay tribute to Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel at the monument on October 31 before participating in the National Unity Day celebrations.
